Frequently asked questions
What does a UX Designer do day-to-day?
UX Designers conduct user research, create wireframes and prototypes, and collaborate with product and engineering teams to solve user problems. Daily work typically includes user interviews, usability testing sessions, iterating on designs based on feedback, presenting concepts to stakeholders, and ensuring designs meet accessibility and brand standards. They bridge the gap between user needs and business goals throughout the product development lifecycle.
What qualifications should I look for in a UX Designer?
Strong UX Designers should have 3-5+ years of experience in digital product design, proficiency with design tools like Figma or Adobe XD, and a portfolio demonstrating user-centered thinking. Look for experience with user research methodologies, accessibility standards (WCAG), and proven ability to work across design systems. A background in interaction design, front-end development, or psychology is often valuable. Relevant certifications like Nielsen Norman Group UX Certification or Google UX Design Certificate are helpful but not always required.
How can ECLARO help us find the right UX Designer?
ECLARO specializes in identifying skilled UX Designers who match your team's specific needs, whether you need a specialist in mobile, web, SaaS, or enterprise applications. We vet candidates' portfolios, verify their tool proficiency and research experience, and assess cultural fit with your organization. ECLARO can help you hire for permanent roles, project-based work, or team augmentation, reducing your recruitment burden while ensuring quality candidates.
What's the difference between UX and UI design, and do I need both?
UX (User Experience) focuses on the overall user journey, research, information architecture, and how users interact with your product. UI (User Interface) focuses on visual design, buttons, layouts, and visual elements. While distinct, modern UX Designers often handle both responsibilities, especially at smaller companies or startups. When hiring through ECLARO, we can help you determine whether you need a generalist designer who does both, or separate specialists depending on your project scope and team structure.
Ways to hire through ECLARO
ECLARO can fill this role through contract or contract-to-hire staffing, direct placement, an Employer of Record (EOR), recruitment process outsourcing (RPO), or a dedicated offshore team in the Philippines (ECAPTIVE).
