Many people are scrambling to learn UI design. In fact, they are not really interested in UI design, but see that the Internet industry has a good prospect, and they turn their attention to UI design after being discouraged by programmers. Why do so many people learn UI design but can't find a job in UI design?

First, the primary UI design market is saturated. In fact, it is not only the UI design that comes out of the training class that is difficult to find a job, but also it is difficult for many fresh graduates from the class to find a professional counterpart. Because most students and fresh graduates in the market who just came out of training institutions can only meet the work of primary UI design, a large number of primary UI designs flood into the market every year, and the demand for primary UI design is so great that the primary UI design market is saturated.

We use the number of market recruits to simply analyze the market demand for primary UI design. There are more than 2 1900 national UI design recruitment information, and about 600 fresh graduates are recruited. We simply judge the level of UI design by working years. UI design with less than one year's working experience is considered as primary UI design for the time being. There are more than 7000 pieces of UI design recruitment information with one to three years working experience in the market. We give half to UI designers with one year's working experience, and the recruitment information of primary UI design accounts for (3500+600)/219000 =18.7% of all UI design recruitment information.

The market demand for primary UI design is only about 20%, but there are so many places to export primary UI designers, so the primary UI design market is saturated.

Second, the quality of courses and lecturers in training institutions is poor. Although the primary UI design market is saturated, the market is changing and the institutions need to change. A training institution is not a good institution if it does not adjust its curriculum and teaching plan according to market demand.

I often see people in Zhihu asking questions, but they can't find jobs when they come out of training institutions. Many people gush that it is impossible to find a job after several months of training. However, some training lasts as long as 15 months, and it is still difficult to find a job after such a long study period. Therefore, the most serious factor for not finding a job may not be the length of study years, but the courses, teaching plans, lecturers and so on.

The learning cycle of most UI training institutions in the market is 4 to 6 months, so it is definitely impossible for you to reach a certain height after studying for a few months. It just means that with a good lecturer to guide you in your study, you will find a learning method in this industry as soon as possible and improve your learning efficiency.

Are lecturers in training institutions as good as advertised? Can the organization really invite so many Daniel lecturers to give lectures to students?

Brochures about the teaching team are all "Director XX, Director XX, Designer XX", 10 years working experience. The feeling that gives people is two words: awesome! Actually? These are all written by others themselves. No one knows how much water they have, and you don't know their real teaching level. I've also heard that there is an institution that recruits graduates to be teachers, and they are also high school graduates. Can you believe it?

Even though the organization may have great lecturers, there may be only one or two great lecturers. When promoting, use Daniel's lecturer to promote. It is really taught by other lecturers, so you are not blessed to enjoy Daniel's lecture hall.

In fact, I think that in the training industry, the background of teachers is only one aspect. Doing things in a down-to-earth manner and teaching students well are the practical things. A good teacher is one who can tell what he has learned in a simple and understandable way.

Now there are more and more UI training institutions on the market. Many UI training institutions may not put education and quality first, but only pay attention to immediate interests. When an institution only pays attention to enrollment, but does not care about the quality of students, lecturers and research, can the quality of students trained find a good job?

Third, students' own conditions are general, and their personal abilities do not meet the market requirements. Many colleges and universities have no threshold requirements for enrollment. In fact, this is also an irresponsible performance for students. Most of the students who come to train UI design are students who want to change careers, but not everyone can meet the conditions for changing careers. In order to let students get a better job, training institutions should strictly follow the admission criteria of "one certificate and one card".

For the record, I have no discrimination against academic qualifications. Think for yourself, if you have a junior high school, high school or technical secondary school education, what is the probability of successful employment in training UI design? Here is an answer about whether low education is suitable for learning UI design. You can simply look at the probability of successful employment of low education UI design.

Market demand and institutional quality are external factors. If external factors can't be changed, you should improve yourself. Because even the worst colleges and universities have students with successful employment, and even the best colleges and universities have students with employment difficulties.

"the master leads the door and practices in the individual." Institutions can only bring you a complete curriculum system and lecturers who are confused about their careers, which can help you avoid detours on this learning road. As for whether you want to eat this table cooked by the teacher slowly, that's your own business. If the teacher forces you to fall, you can't absorb it well.

UI training institutions promote this industry with high salaries and prospects, blindly trying to attract more students, but never focusing on courses and teaching. So even if they pass the institutional system, the curriculum system is not in line with the market, and students can't meet the requirements of the market. In addition, the primary UI design in the market is saturated, so it is still difficult for students in training institutions to find a job in UI design.

Having said that, since the primary UI design market is saturated, we should pay attention to whether the talent training scheme meets the current market requirements when choosing training institutions, and demand ourselves with higher standards when studying. Only in this way can we improve our chances of success in employment and high salary.
