Resumes show what a job candidate can bring to a company, and what sets them apart from other UI Designers. Together with the cover letter and portfolio, your UI resume is a way to market yourself to a Hiring Manager to earn your dream job as a UI Designer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>User interface design job postings can also often include some aspects of User Experience (UX design). Job titles such as UX\/UI Designer (or the inverse of UI\/UX Designer) may have an emphasis on user experience over user interface. Be sure to read the job posting carefully so you can craft your application to the needs of the position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other designer positions such as Web Designer and Graphic Designer or design fields like product design will have many transferrable skills and experience that you can work into your UI design resume. You could reference a general resume example, but looking at a UI Designer resume example will provide additional context for what Hiring Managers may be expecting from incoming job applications.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading--h2 has-text-align-left bstn-blocks-heading--divider\" id=\"ui-resumes-step-by-step-guide\"><h2 class=\"bstn-blocks-heading__heading-element\">UI Resumes &#8211; a Step-by-Step Guide<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-indented-content-container bstn-blocks-indented-content-container\"><div class=\"row\"><div class=\"bstn-blocks-indented-content-container__content col col-sm-8 col-sm-offset-1\">\n<p>To write a successful UI Designer resume, follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Write a compelling profile\/summary<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>List your UI design skills<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Highlight relevant work\/professional experience<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Describe your most impressive achievements<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mention your educational background<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>List awards and other activities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To make the resume or CV-writing process easier, start by doing some planning and preparation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading--h3 has-text-align-left\"><h3 class=\"bstn-blocks-heading__heading-element\">Know your user<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most important skills for a UI Designer is the ability to understand their user. Just like any UI project, your resume should be created with the audience in mind. Review the job posting and identify the most important skills or qualifications the employer or Hiring Manager is seeking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading--h3 has-text-align-left\"><h3 class=\"bstn-blocks-heading__heading-element\">Research the company<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Each resume you design and submit should be tailored to the company you are applying to. Browse their website and social media to learn more about their work and have the most recent information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading--h3 has-text-align-left\"><h3 class=\"bstn-blocks-heading__heading-element\">Build a list of your skills<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Consider all your past design work, projects, and achievements. Compile a list detailing the purpose of the project, the tools you used, and the skills you gained. You can refer back to this list when drafting your professional resume to land your dream job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading--h3 has-text-align-left\"><h3 class=\"bstn-blocks-heading__heading-element\">Keep design in mind<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Your resume design is one of the first opportunities to show off your skills and demonstrate your UI design experience. Create a layout with a strong visual hierarchy that easily leads the reader through each section. Remember to keep it simple, clean and readable. Include ample white space throughout, add color sparingly, and use two fonts at most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UI Designer resumes and cover letters act as an extension of your portfolio when applying to a position as it&#8217;s the first design work an employer will see. Apply similar design principles to your designer resume as you would to user interfaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you\u2019re ready to begin writing, keep these best practices in mind for your UI Designer resume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading--h3 has-text-align-left\"><h3 class=\"bstn-blocks-heading__heading-element\">Be brief<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Your UI Designer resume should be simple, clear and concise. The ideal length is one page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading--h3 has-text-align-left\"><h3 class=\"bstn-blocks-heading__heading-element\">Personalize the content<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The content in your resume should be tailored to each job you apply to. Highlight relevant projects, skills and achievements. Avoid sending resume templates, or resumes from a generic resume builder without customizing the design and information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading--h3 has-text-align-left\"><h3 class=\"bstn-blocks-heading__heading-element\">Stay organized<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Structure your content using clear headings. Use bullet points to help readability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading--h3 has-text-align-left\"><h3 class=\"bstn-blocks-heading__heading-element\">Use action verbs<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>When describing your responsibilities and accomplishments, use verbs that pack a punch. Examples of strong action verbs include: advised, delivered, executed, coordinated, and led.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading--h3 has-text-align-left\"><h3 class=\"bstn-blocks-heading__heading-element\">Quantify achievements<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Numbers and metrics add credibility to your achievements. Show the measurable impact you can bring as a UI Designer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading--h3 has-text-align-left\"><h3 class=\"bstn-blocks-heading__heading-element\">Write accomplishment statements<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t simply state your previous job duties. Instead, craft accomplishment statements that emphasize results. Use the formula action verb + task + result. For example, \u201cWorked with a team of Designers and Developers to create a new platform that increased clients\u2019 revenue by 120%.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading--h3 has-text-align-left\"><h3 class=\"bstn-blocks-heading__heading-element\">Edit and proofread<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Resumes with excessive errors are often instantly rejected. Check over spelling and grammar before submitting your application. If possible, have a Senior UX Designer or another contact in design review your information.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading--h2 has-text-align-left bstn-blocks-heading--divider\" id=\"getting-started-what-is-the-purpose\"><h2 class=\"bstn-blocks-heading__heading-element\">Getting Started &#8211; What is the Purpose of the Resume?<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-indented-content-container bstn-blocks-indented-content-container\"><div class=\"row\"><div class=\"bstn-blocks-indented-content-container__content col col-sm-8 col-sm-offset-1\">\n<p>The purpose of a UI Designer resume is to market yourself to employers by showcasing your skills and qualifications.
