Help with assessing UX candidates
Got many UX candidates? I help you hire the best one in 4 hours.
In a pipeline full of UX candidates, only a few are usually a truly great fit. And those often slip through the cracks if you lack the time or the right expertise. Managers often don't have enough time, and recruiters often lack the necessary expertise.
I have both the time and the expertise.
I often found UX recruitment disappointing. Effort was not the issue, but the gap in expertise unfortunately was.
As a designer and design lead, I worked for over 50 organisations, including Schiphol, Philips, Adidas and Rabobank.
I developed a service that combines recruitment with professional assessment of UX designers (conducted by me).
In 4 hours from assessment to hire
The 4 hours it takes you are spent on the initial assessment and interviews with the top 2. I take care of the rest. I work independently and don't have to bother you.
30 min.
If we agree with the proposal, we can start.
15 min.
E.g. Recruitee, Homerun, Teamtailor, Greenhouse.
I recommend the top 2 with a clear rationale.
3 hrs
Or a third if needed, but that is rarely the case.
Challenges during assessment
A pipeline full of UX candidates. That sounds great, but in practice, 95% aren't a good fit for the context, and you often lose the 5% that are a fit quickly.
Recruiters don't have subject matter expertise
Recruiters hebben geen ervaring in UX, dit beïnvloedt de kwaliteit en de kwantiteit.
You start losing the best candidates in a matter of days
Hiring leaders krijgen vaak de verkeerde kandidaten aangereikt door recruiters.
Heads-of and managers don't have a lot of time
Beoordelen kost veel tijd, en een minder goede hire kost dagelijks meer tijd.
Hiring a less good match costs you 100k additional each year
Door het werk dat ze doen en hun plek in de organisatie hebben UX-ers grote impact.
How I lower the risk
UX hiring is too important to let the first selection be handled by people who do not understand the field in depth. That is why I started Found UX in 2019.
20 years of experience as a UX designer
I worked as a UX & product designer, design lead, and design system specialist.
7 years of experience in UX hiring
I have filled 300+ UX vacancies and reviewed 15,000+ UX applications.
Q-core UX candidate assessment
Q-core, my UX candidate assessment system, helps me eliminate risks.
Technical interviews included
I conduct a technical interview with the best ones. I introduce the top 2 to you.
What you gain:
You lose less candidates
Lead times go down and my response times uo, which reduces the risk of drop-off.
You fill your
role faster
Usually, candidate 1 or 2 that I recommend gets hired. Sometimes a third is needed.
You hire better candidates
A candidate who is a 20% better fit needs 20% less development capacity.
You get more things done
You save the time you would otherwise spend screening unsuitable candidates.
For every organisation
A logo wall should of course feature well-known organizations you’ve had the pleasure of helping. However, not all of Found UX’s clients are allready well-known. For instance, many of our 300+ clients are SaaS start-ups & scale-ups, and boutique digital agencies.
