UXPA Careers Event - Attendee Review

On the 19^th June, Thomson Reuters in Canary Wharf played host to this year’s UXPA Careers Event.
Raj Arjan (UXPA) was the curator for the evening, with Jiri Siftar (Design Lead at Thomson Reuters) giving a rousing welcome speech.

This speed dating-style get together saw a number of UX job seekers meet with over 15 potential employers and industry recruiters (including IC Creative).

Representatives from UX teams around London and the UK sat in pairs at their designated tables, which were of course laden with leaflets, booklets and most importantly SWEETS.

Rotating every 5 minutes, the budding UX Designers and Researchers had a chance to talk about themselves and their qualifications. In turn, employers were able to discuss any upcoming vacancies of interest.

With a huge pool of newly graduated UX’ers as well as industry experts looking for a career change, this was a worthwhile event which we would recommend to job seekers next year.

As always, we are interested to hear from you, please do email us.
