I once coached a designer who had an impressive resume.

• Big-name company? ✅

• Fancy job title? ✅

• Solid UX skills? ✅

But after multiple interviews, he kept getting rejected.

The feedback?

“You have great experience, but we’re moving forward with someone else.”

Here’s what was actually happening:

❌ He was listing responsibilities instead of telling impact-driven stories.

❌ He assumed his job title was enough to impress hiring managers.

❌ He didn’t make his work memorable.

The truth? Hiring managers don’t buy skills. They buy stories.

So we changed his approach:

✅ Instead of “I redesigned the checkout flow,” he told a before-and-after transformation.

✅ Instead of “I improved usability,” he shared specific numbers and business impact.

✅ Instead of generic answers, he framed each response like a problem-solving journey.

The result?

🔥 His next interview went completely differently.

🔥 Hiring managers leaned in. They asked follow-up questions.

🔥 He became the most memorable candidate—and landed the job.

Your job title won’t make you stand out. Your storytelling will.

If you want the Trust Story Method to ace UX interviews, DM me “STORY” and I’ll share it with you.
