Today we review Benny Sun’s fantastic design portfolio. What makes it interesting is that Benny transitioned from UX/UI designer to Principal User researcher at Morgan Stanley. He has a background in the educational sector and was a R&D researcher for a Edtech company amongst other things. As usual, I will outline what he does particularly well and share some practical takeaways that you can replicate in your UX portfolio. If you are transitioning to UX or already applying to UX jobs this portfolio review will be insightful.
Let’s begin.
Practical Takeaways
- Keep to a consistent look for your UX portfolio projects with clear understandable headings and sub-headings.
- Project summaries are super helpful for recruiters who are pressed for time. Include them.
- Ensure that your UX portfolio reads well by outlining a design process and show how each step feeds into the next
- When showing design screens, sketches or wireframes help the reader by showing annotations and connected userflows.
- Always try to be descriptive about how many participants took part in a study and what the results where.
