Interface designer: who is it and how to become one? We tell you how much this direction is in demand and what salary you can expect.

Let’s break down what specialists do, what their responsibilities are, and how to become an interface designer from scratch.

How to become a UX/UI designer and how to get started

Who is an interface designer and what does he do

An interface designer is a person who is responsible for creating a user-friendly, understandable and positive user interface. How it works? Imagine your favorite dessert. Here they brought it to you in a cafe, you see the shape, texture, colors – juicy raspberries and a fleecy mint leaf on a cheesecake, you feel a pleasant aroma. Then bite off a piece and feel the taste. If you really like the dessert, you will probably take another one with you. A similar chain occurs with any product in our lives – from eating lunch at a restaurant to discovering a new site.

There are two blocks in interface design – UI and UX:

UI-part (user interface) – everything related to graphic design: colors, fonts, placement of elements. Generally speaking, this is what the user sees.
UX-part (user experience) – concerns how the user interacts with the product, what steps he takes to complete the desired action. For example, he wants to subscribe, but cannot figure out which link to click on.

Although these concepts are sometimes considered separately in the market, it is better not to separate them from each other. The visual implementation greatly affects the user’s interaction with the product, making UI without UX is difficult and incorrect.

The task of an interface designer is to analyze user behavior scenarios and develop an easy-to-use interface. It is important for a UI / UX specialist what kind of experience the user experiences and what emotions he experiences at the same time. If a person is uncomfortable, he will be annoyed and leave for another site or another application.

As an example: on the page of the “Interface Designer” course in the Workshop, designers worked on both the UI and the UX part:

UI: layout of elements, colors, fonts.

UX: The page “prompts” the user for intuitive actions – for example, the course bar reacts to the cursor, inviting to click.

Material on the topic:

Click here: how to create a good user interface

Demand for the profession

The interface designer profession has changed a lot in the last 20 years. Previously, the designer just drew in Photoshop, and now he is an important team player who designs user experience and develops scenarios for interaction between customers and business.

All because today no business can do without its own website or application. And the profit of the company depends on whether it is convenient for the user to do what he came for.

All this predetermines the demand for the profession of an interface developer. But you need to be prepared for the fact that the designer does not just draw prototypes, he thinks a lot, explores and makes strategic decisions together with the team.

Learn to be a UI/UX designer from scratch in 8 months

Create 6 mobile and web app projects for your portfolio. After training, you will receive the first paid order in the “Workshop” – a design studio inside the Practicum. Take the first step and try the free introductory part of the Interface Designer course.

Responsibilities of a UI/UX designer

Interface designer creates new products or maintains and improves existing projects. Usually the chain of his duties looks like this:

1. Define business needs →

2. Research the audience →

3. Design user experience →

4. Design the look and feel of a website or application →

5. Make people’s lives better, thereby benefiting the business.

Let’s take a quick look at each of the steps:

Define business needs . . The first step of a designer is to understand the essence of the problem and understand how to solve it. For example, a grocery store chain wants to improve its mobile app and categorize products — the designer needs to figure out how to do this so that users really feel more comfortable choosing and ordering products.

If this is support for an already running project, then the designer looks at what problem needs to be solved and whether it needs to be solved by means of design. A classic example: is it possible to increase the conversion to an order by making changes to the location and color of the buttons on the site.

Explore the audience. There are different methods of UI and UX research – interviews, surveys, UX testing, card sorting, A/B testing. In a particular situation, the method is chosen based on the tasks and goals. For example, if this is not a new development, but a project support, the designer may be faced with the task of understanding why users abandon the cart. The designer will check if there is a technical error, and then choose a method and go to the users to find the answer.

Design user experience. Here you need to register the user’s route – describe the steps that he will potentially take inside the product in order to solve his problem.

Design the appearance of the site and application. Armed with the necessary information, the designer proceeds to the design stage – develops the project structure, what will work and how. At first, these are rough sketches that go through prototyping, styling and detailed development. After testing with real users and checking the metrics, the design is almost ready. Although it often needs improvement.

Make people’s lives better. At this stage, the users are happy, the business is benefiting, and the designer feels they are making a difference.

Team-driven projects make life easier for people in the real world. Here are the learning tasks of our students: choosing a convenient bike route, finding an overexposure for animals, an online antique museum, a medical service, and many other useful ideas.

Pros and cons of being a UX/UI designer

Now that you know what a UX/UI designer does, you might be wondering about the pros and cons of this profession.

The advantages of the profession include its flexibility. An interface designer chooses a format of work that is convenient for him: in a studio, in a team of a specific product, or freelance. Or he changes these formats at different stages of his career: for example, he first gains experience and makes contacts in the studio, and then switches to freelancing. When a designer becomes a freelancer, he chooses projects and regulates his workload.

Perspectives. The profession is in demand and allows you to work with foreign markets. You can also migrate to related industries – project management and business analysis – or open your own business.

Exciting tasks and deepening in different areas. The interface designer is involved in the implementation of interesting projects, each of which is unique. He can choose to specialize in product design, web interface design, user interface and graphical interface design. He also works with different areas: today it can be a financial audit, tomorrow it’s a yoga app, and the day after tomorrow it’s a niche goods store.

And here are the challenges facing the designer:

Constant study. For those who like to study, this is rather a plus. But the fact is that the profession of a UI/UX designer is dynamic and requires constant upgrading of knowledge and skills.

Subjective assessments and agreements with a large number of people. We perceive the world differently, and what seems comfortable to you may not necessarily seem comfortable to another person. A designer can spend many hours on a prototype, but it may seem like a failure to others. This is a normal workflow, and such risks can be minimized through the proper organization of work, but for some this will be a serious disadvantage in the work. And it can also tire communication with a large number of people and eternal “rights”.

Salary of an interface designer

The median salary is 91,000 ₽. And, as always, the more a specialist knows and can do, the higher his value in the labor market.

How to become a UX/UI designer and where to start learning

To get started in the profession, an interface designer needs to have basic skills. These include graphic design – knowledge of the laws of typography, the basics of composition and color. Also, the designer must understand the layout and be familiar with HTML and CSS. You will need knowledge of tools – graphic editors – and a willingness to quickly learn new tools, if necessary.

If you already know and know how to do some of this, it will be easier, but you can learn the profession of a UX / UI designer from scratch. Where can a future interface designer study? We advise you to choose proven courses. For example, the Yandex Practicum online education service offers a course called Interface Design, where you can learn all the skills you need to find a job.

You have a user experience when you use a product or service. This could be using a mobile app, a website, a physical object (such as trying on a new pair of running shoes), or a service (such as booking a hotel or taking public transportation).

All aspects of this contact are called user experience or UX. Think about the last time you tried a brand new product. Did you manage to complete the task? How easy was it? How did this affect your well-being? Simple, effective, and enjoyable products and services are the goals of UX design. So, this article will help you better understand what a user experience designer is.

Making a product or service functional, enjoyable, and accessible is the job of the user experience designer. While many companies create user experiences, this phrase is most commonly associated with the digital design of websites and mobile apps. The general design steps usually remain the same, although the exact method varies from product to product and firm to company.

There is no single path to a thriving career as a user interface designer because the field is vast and constantly changing. Graphic design, architecture, interior design, software development, and industrial design are just some of the professional sectors whose skills overlap with those of user interface designers.

Here are some ways to become a user experience designer:

#1. Enroll in User Experience Designer Course

Even if you lack any specific knowledge, you can start preparing for your future with a user experience designer course or certification. Find a class or program where you can learn about principles, practice with the latest user experience designer tools, complete projects for your portfolio, and network with people in the field.

No. 2. Use your abilities in the real world

You can start gaining experience as soon as you are hired as a user interface designer. Donate your time and talents to a non-profit charitable organization or the company of a friend or relative. The alternative would be to rework a previous user experience that wasn’t as great as it could have been. The term “unsolicited redesign” is often used to describe this.

If you already have a full-time job in another industry, you can hone your user experience design skills by identifying potential problems and suggesting solutions.

#3. Build a Design Portfolio

Although you don’t need a degree to work as a user interface designer, you should have a portfolio to show potential employers what you can do. Compile assignments you’ve completed for classes, volunteer work, and unsolicited redesigns. As you gain experience, keep adding your best work.

As a user interface designer, you are responsible for ensuring that users are happy with the product as a whole. Think of yourself as a customer advocate, constantly looking for ways to improve the customer experience. Let’s take a look at some of the duties and responsibilities you may have while working on a design.

#1. Get to know the brand and the user

Think about the problem you are trying to solve for the user (and how it relates to your brand goals).

No. 2. Conduct customer research

Determine the user’s needs, goals, behaviors and concerns. One-on-one interviews, focus groups, surveys, and A/B testing are just a few examples of user research tools. A UX researcher can oversee this process in some companies.

#3. Explore what you found

Creating user personas based on your research will help you identify the key components of a product or service at this stage. Start by scheduling a user flow.

No. 4. Artwork

You will develop sitemaps, wireframes or prototypes as you begin to flesh out the design to offer you and your team a clearer idea of what the final product will look like. The user interface (UI) designer will now add any required visual or user interface components.

No. 5. Conduct user research

Use usability testing to test your design by seeing how real users interact with a product or service. Identify any design issues and create fixes.

No.

6. Deliver Your Project

Provide your client or business with the design solution and the necessary capabilities for a user experience designer to use a variety of technical and professional talents to launch successful products and services (or improve existing ones).

Even if you’re new to UX design, you’ve probably already developed some of these talents, as many of them are transferable from other professions. By focusing on these critical abilities, you can begin to build a strong career foundation.

Opportunities in the workplace

Communication skills will help you conduct effective user interviews and present your solutions to clients or management.

Empathy allows problems and solutions to be viewed from the user’s point of view.

Collaborative abilities allow you to collaborate with your team by accepting criticism, seeking solutions, and building on knowledge. Critical thinking encourages you to question your assumptions and come up with original solutions.

Technical Expertise

Survey: You can use research such as interviews, surveys, and observations to help you make the best choices during the design process.

Information: You can organize and prioritize huge and complex sets of information using information architecture.

Wireframe: You can quickly explore design options with a wireframe (creating the basic structure for a website or app).

Prototyping: Critical to evaluating functionality and identifying issues.

Basic visual design and coding skills can help you understand how your design fits into the larger product development process, even if they are not needed by UX designers.

You can find many UX-related jobs (eg UX designer, interface designer, product designer, and service designer) because UX design is an interesting and ever-evolving industry.

In a small organization, your function as a UX designer is likely to be more general and include responsibility for every step of the design process. In a larger organization, you may want to focus on a specific area of UX design such as interaction design, information architecture, usability analysis, research, writing, or writing.

You will have the opportunity to grow in your area of expertise as a UX Expert (SMX) or take a leadership position as a Project Manager, Product Manager or Director of User Experience as you gain experience.

The average salary for a user experience designer in the US is $96,436. As with most professions, user experience designer pay can vary depending on your level of expertise, the business you work for, and the location of your work. As with any job, your salary expectations should change as your experience and talents develop.

As with most professions, user experience designer pay can vary depending on your skill level, the business you work for, and where you work. We’ve put together this UI designer salary guide for 2023 to help you get a better idea of what to expect or to inspire you to imagine the opportunities a UX career can open up for you.

We’ll talk about the following:

#1. User Experience Designer Salary Summary

Starting a new job can be an exciting but unreliable adventure. You may not be confident in your ability to get the pay you want or in the long-term security of your job.

Fortunately, since the dawn of the UX industry, the demand for UX designers has steadily increased. Design businesses outperform their competitors in terms of revenue and overall success. The average UX designer’s pay is rising to reflect this truth as it becomes more widely accepted.

There are additional positions and different salary expectations for each as specialization in the field develops. Here’s our checklist of additional roles you might be interested in as you gain more specialized experience. Averages are published by Payscale unless otherwise noted.

#3. UX/UI Designer Salary

Companies often require at least a basic understanding of user interface (UI) from UX designers before hiring them. We want to emphasize that the focus and skill set required for each feature actually ensures that UX and UI are two different roles. But if you get the same skills in both areas, you can stand out in that area and possibly earn more income.

UX/UI designers typically make $91,950 per year in the US.

No. 4. UX Writer Salary

If you have the ability to write first and foremost, as many UX designers do, why not be rewarded for that specific knowledge? the user’s journey as smoothly as possible. According to the annual compensation data released by the UX Writing Hub, the average salary for UX writers in the US is $110,000.

No. 5. Salary of UX researchers

Consider becoming a UX researcher if you have a strong love for user research and imagine devoting most of your work time to the early stages of the UX design process.

UX researchers typically make $108,500 per year in the US.

#6. UX Strategist Salary

Finally, you might consider working as a UX Strategist if you have common sense and the ability to build rapport with stakeholders of all types. With a salary to back it up, this position will put you at the meeting point of business and design. UX Researchers usually earn in the US 9$2,000 per year.

Employers will increasingly distinguish between self-taught or non-certified designers and those with formal UX certification as the demand for UX designers grows. A free micro-course on UX design can give you a basic understanding of the field if you don’t know much about it yet, and help you decide if a career in UX is right for you.

But after that, you should look into certification programs! All the knowledge and ability you need to be successful in this area comes from the respected UX Design Certification Program.
