Feedback session for our PRO users. I'm answering all their questions. New session comes every week.

Michał here and I'm answering your questions from the last two weeks! Remember that every two weeks you can submit another one - it can be about anything related to design, or just requesting some UI tips - in that case send in your academy project link.

Hello, I have done your UI for apps and case study courses, they were amazing. I have created my portfolio making a basic website using html css and some javscript. But my question is, how can I design a website on Figma and then develope it? Should I pay for the developers option in Figma? what is the easiest way to do this? Thank you very much! 

Hi Michal, I just want to ask you questions about creating a portfolio for my 2nd project, designing a website. I watched all your videos of your presenting case studies courses, but I just wonder if there are any differences between presenting case studies for apps and websites. Thank you.

 I often have this problem in interviews where they ask me what other options I came up with for the idea and why did I pick the idea we went with.

However the reality is that we usually pick something based on what we thought was the best idea. We did not really do user research on every single design decision. Not everything has data and user testing, otherwise that's all we'd be doing, and I think that if I were hired with them, the reality would be the same: we'd be mostly moving forward based on experience and judgment. 

Yet during an interview, supposedly every decision we do should be based on user research. How do I make interviewers happy about this? Or do I just do my best to show rationale and if it's not good enough for some people then maybe nothing will be good enough for them anyway? 

Can you get some partnership with Figma to those who are learning UI/UX for the first time? 

How do you work with a teammate who constantly takes credit for your ideas and even work? :') 

How to stop feeling like an imposter as a UX designer? It holds me back from connecting to another designer as I think I am not competent enough. 

What skills to focus on as a entry level designer looking for a job, that will make us stand out from other entry level designer. 

I am very new to UI/UX design, what are the key aspects of design which I should focus first to be a better designer. 

Hello Michal, I'm currently working on my UI portfolio and creating projects. Since I don't work for clients, they are fictional. How far should I go in terms of graphic design (graphic chart, logo, branding…) 

Hi Michael! My question today is about how it works in terms of the design system and brand identity. If the brand identity specifies that the font to use is, for example, "Montserrat," do I have to use that font for the product or the website? In my case, I'm launching a new product, and the brand book is being done with a different font from the one currently used on the website. Should I modify it, or does it depend? Additionally, if the specified font is not ideal for UI, should I still use it? Thank you :) 

Can you please make a product for slide decks? I am getting asked by recruiters to share slide decks sometimes prior to getting an interview, as a way to get selected for the interview process. Also, it is usually expected to talk through a case study in slide deck format in an interview. I did the case study product and it was amazing, but I am getting asked to show slide decks as well so if you have any additional advice on how to differently do those I would love that. 

Especially talking about the difference between slide decks to share ahead of time (and if I should even do that?) and, slide decks to share during the interview. To be honest I would prefer to not even share a slide deck prior to an interview as it seems a good way for work that's intended to be for presentation-only to get leaked and shared or stolen. Thank you! 

And that's it for the fifth round of Q&A. We will be doing these in a live-video form soon so stay tuned!
