[Thalia Doreus @ThaliasResearch]

Almost through week 2 of working as a UX Researcher. I knew I’d love it but I LOVE IT. I have moments when I’m hard on myself because all these acronyms and jargon but I’ll get there. So proud of myself 😍😝😌 #blackinUX #BlackTechTwitter #womenintech #careertransition

@Pharm_Sakeenah A lot of internships pop up for the summer months so starting in January you can be on the lookout on LinkedIn builtin and other job boards for ux internships. Continue to work on projects and build your portfolio,network as much as you can, try adplist to get mentors etc.

[Thalia Doreus @ThaliasResearch]

Internship ends tomorrow and I have an unexplainable sense of peace that this is one of the best decisions I’ve made for me. Job is not secured as I thought it would be but I’m so sure it’s coming soon. God’s working right now. #careerswitch

[Thalia Doreus @ThaliasResearch]

@LionessMumaX Sure! You can find me on LinkedIn and we can talk more there.

I can finally say it….I GOT THE JOB! I decided UX was for me at the beginning of this year, did the Google ux design courses, completed an internship and after 3months on the job hunt….I GOT IT! thank you Jesus 🙏🏽 #blackinux #BlackTechTwitter #womenintech #careertransition

[Thalia Doreus @ThaliasResearch]

@LionessMumaX You got this!

[Thalia Doreus @ThaliasResearch]

@Keefayahq @MakeUpAfrica_ Yes my internship was remote and separate from the Google ux design courses. I started off finding them through job boards on LinkedIn, builtin, otta etc.

[Thalia Doreus @ThaliasResearch]

@OwenWooo Yes I recommend it for foundational knowledge and experience from ground up but getting connected with an internship or an apprenticeship can be beyond beneficial as well.

@melleedunn Yes I think it’s all in what each person makes of it but they give you great building blocks.

[Thalia Doreus @ThaliasResearch]

I’ve been silent but I’ve been interviewing. Talking to mentors, talking to colleagues, talking to employers and as always feeling grateful and hopeful! Getting closer and closer. It’s the whole journey that matters. #careertransition #womenintech #BlackTechTwitter #blackinUX

@abitpsyched I’m so sorry about this. Your Twitter was on of the first UX research content I followed and I so appreciate just your presence in the space. Hopefully it’ll make a resurrection in the right time for you.

[Thalia Doreus @ThaliasResearch]

I finally got the email I been waiting on. I didn’t get the job.Disappointed a little but GRATEFUL. I’m 1 step closer to MY OPEN DOOR. Social media makes everything seems like it happens overnight but my feed shows it’s a process. #careertransition #BlackTechTwitter #womenintech
