HCI InsidersS1EP5｜UX Journey: 不断学习，不断寻求新挑战 (feat. Minjun Chen)欢迎大家来到新一期HCI Insiders！这期节目我们有幸邀请到Spotify的产品设计师Minjun Chen。Minjun毕业于华盛顿大学西雅图的MHCI+D专业，她的求学和工作都经历过诸多转折。本科毕业于中央民族大学中文系的Minjun为何选择来美国读教育科技的硕士？又是什么契机让她接触到产品设计并决定去华盛顿大学攻读HCI硕士呢？辗转于硅谷多家知名公司担任产品设计师的Minjun是怎样准备求职的呢？让我们快来听听她的回答吧！ 关于Minjun: ⁠https://www.minjundesign.com/⁠ ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/minjunc/⁠ ⁠https://www.youtube.com/@minjunux⁠ Timeline:  00:00 Introduction 02:15 始于Apple iPod Touch的设计师梦想，以及从高中到硕士近十年的逐梦历程 12:10 过去的教育和实习经历对Minjun如今做product designer的影响 15:30 给正在犹豫转行HCI的同学的建议：“不要想着快速成功，这条路并没有那么容易。” 19:11 Minjun毕业这几年，因为身份问题而不得不转辗多家科技公司的心酸经历：“第一次被裁员之后我猜意识到，没有一份工作是永恒的，自我提升才是最重要的。平时有意识地积累和准备作品集素材，找工作的时候就不会慌了。” 27:50 Minjun分享了关于设计师如何快速学习和上手专业领域完全不同的项目的经验：“解决复杂问题的能力是异曲同工的。带着好奇心，多问多看。其实学习新domain knowledge的过程也是自我成长的过程，这也是我感觉做设计师最有意思的地方。” 31:53 初级设计师如何在职场利用工作机会快速成长：“主动找机会提高自己的弱项，多请教组里其他设计师，以及一定要和design manager进行career conversation，告诉manager你需要什么机会，想达到什么目标。一定不要自己闷头做，要多和product manager以及engineer交流。” 37:00 Solo designer更需要一个有经验的mentor来给自己一些design input和feedback 39:58 面试的流程、准备，以及心态的重要性：“每次面试到后来感觉就跟楼下大爷唠嗑一样，聊得嗨了，可能反而因为放松会讲很多。一定不能特别紧张而支支吾吾，面试多了就不紧张了。” 48:10 Minjun开始做YouTuber的原因，制作过程中面临的挑战，以及未来的计划 52:06 华盛顿大学西雅图 (UW Seattle) HCI+D的就读体验分享 55:45 在这么多公司做过各种类型的产品，也和各种风格的团队合作过，Minjun觉得产品设计师最重要的、最需要下功夫重点培养的能力有哪些？ 58:48 假如时光倒流，Minjun会给20岁出头的自己说什么？ 01:03:12 在Minjun看来，交互设计的未来会是怎样的？
