Web Developer & UX Designer Meet & Hire | New York City
About this event
Meet designers and developers who've honed their skills in General Assembly's UX Design Immersive program.
Hiring managers, recruiters, and HR personnel are welcome. You will have the opportunity to connect with designers who:
- Take a human-centered approach to design, including conducting user research, user interviewing, contextual inquiry, and participatory design
- Create and communicate solutions to business problems that meet customer goals
- Express design ideas through site maps, user flows, and wireframes
- Use grid thinking, typography and color theory to create visually comprehensive layouts
- Create and conduct usability tests on clickable prototypes
- Generate useful design documentation, such as case studies and specs, to communicate and collaborate with other team members
Come check out student's portfolios of design work and talk to them about full-time, contract and apprenticeship opportunities.
General Assembly does not collect a commission for hiring our graduates and never will. Food and refreshments will be provided!
About Our Students
Our graduates are made up of a group of proactive, creative, collaborative, and motivated user experience designers ready to make a difference in their next position. While our graduates all display a common set of skills and competencies, they each bring their own backgrounds and interests to their work as UX designers. Our students come from fields as diverse as product management, engineering, non-profit management, law, science, finance, and more.
Format
The event is structured as a reverse job fair. Graduates will be stationed at tables, showcasing their individual and team projects. Employers are free to engage each designer at their discretion. All attendees will receive a GA grad profiles brochure in advance, to make the experience more targeted.
