UX Recruitment - The candidate perspective

..Do to others as you would have them do to you..

I’m pretty sure we’ve all experienced it, you get calls at the most inconvenient time. You get a barrage of emails and messages when they are just not relevant!

In this week’s discussion, I’m really keen to try and tap into the market and see how UX candidates prefer to communicate best. Working in the UX space is different to other areas, you’re not always able to drop everything to answer the phone (sometimes you are, but you just don’t want to!). You may be in workshops all morning, so the last thing you want to do on your lunch break is speak to 15 different people asking you the same question whilst you tuck into your KFC.

As a UX professional, freelance or permanent, it would be brilliant to hear from you guys and let us know what the preference is for communication. I hate being bombarded when it’s not necessary, but when my car insurance or phone contract is up for renewal I like to use the internet and use online assistance, that’s my personal preference.

What works best for you the candidate when you want to know about the market activity? And equally, what annoys you most!!
