I think Shai Krishna has not seen soo mucj over-crowded mediocre people in this design industry till now, or the case is that he thinks the industry is well matured! The Industry is rotted with these jobs, and also with those people who are mediocre at their skills, and trust me Shai, it is over-crowded, really over-crowded with these stuffs! I forgot that Ohh I should apply for jobs! Naah! I don't apply Because I know some people will care but doesn't have stipend, or either the case they don't know your value and thus they think do it for free , we will give you free LOR & etc sh***y dreams! Time for skilled designer to understand to how to stand-out amd get it done! And Understanding skill plays the biggest impact in your life 🙌✨

Feeling really let down today. And yes, you read that right – no pay. I found a job post for a UI/UX Designer Intern at Meta Scifor Technologies Pvt. Ltd., and it's got me upset. This is a full-time, unpaid gig for 5 months. They want you working Monday to Friday, 10:30 AM to 6:30 PM, and they want you now. It's just not right. They're expecting someone to give their all – their time, skills, and energy – without offering anything in return. We need to call this out. Everyone deserves to be paid for their work, to learn, and to grow without making such huge sacrifices. And I can't believe this is continuing to happen in 2024.
Highlighting the importance of skills and standing out is crucial in navigating such a crowded field. Solid insight! 🌟
I have daily come accross such job posting for unpaid internship, dark side of this over crowded design industry. As a designer myself, I would say, we all have to believe in ourselves our skills, we are capable enough to get something in return for our hardwork.
