Dribbble

Dribbble is a beloved platform among designers, known for its basketball-themed references like "shots" and "rebounds," alongside its selective invitation policies. However, did you know it also features a job board with enticing UX/UI positions?

Opportunities on Dribbble are categorized into permanent roles (full-time and contract) and freelance positions (available fully with a Pro+ account). It’s ideal for those seeking specific roles such as UX research or leadership positions, thanks to the sidebar filters. While most listings are from North American companies (US & Canada), it’s encouraging to see some positions labeled ‘Anywhere’ as well.

Next time you’re on Dribbble searching for logo inspiration or creative gradients, don’t forget to check their job board.

Behance

The Adobe-owned community platform has long been a staple for showcasing creative work to potential employers and connecting candidates with suitable companies.

As of this writing, Behance has more listings in user experience design compared to Dribbble, though there are overlaps with hybrid roles like brand and graphic designer. It appears to be more globally inclusive, with organizations posting jobs from countries like India, Brazil, and Turkey.

Roles are sorted into full-time and freelance categories without requiring an additional account, unlike Dribbble, and there’s even a dedicated section for internships.

RemoteOK

In my opinion, RemoteOK is the quintessential remote job board, created by the inspiring digital nomad Pieter Levels. Among various sectors, it features a specific filter for design roles, as remote work continues to gain popularity. At the time of writing, there are an increasing number of listings for talented designers, researchers, and copywriters. Signing up for job alerts ensures you won’t miss your dream position, as this board is already trusted by firms like Amazon, Github, and Stripe.

If You Could Jobs

As a European, I was thrilled to discover this excellent website, which primarily features creative job opportunities either remotely across Europe or within the UK. A notable advantage over previously mentioned sites is that some companies include salary ranges directly in the job descriptions. It offers both freelance and full-time filters, along with a clear deadline for applications (a significant plus!).

AngelList

At first glance, AngelList might seem like just a hub for venture capital and startups, but over the years, it has evolved into a valuable resource for finding UX/UI positions tailored to specific skills and locations.

This platform is particularly beneficial if you’re interested in contributing to social impact initiatives or startup ventures, as here you might be among the initial hires for promising organizations poised for growth. I often recommend these opportunities to more experienced designers, but if you’re looking to gain experience, why not give it a shot? Explore available design roles and don’t forget to subscribe for job alerts.

UXR Remote

If you enjoy sleek user interfaces, fluid animations, and 3D elements, this site may not be for you. While it might not be the most visually appealing option, the straightforward Airtable format effectively shares remote design job opportunities. Similar to RemoteOK, it focuses solely on remote positions, and the frequency of new postings is quite high. It’s a great resource and serves as a reminder that sometimes simplicity is best.

UX Jobs Board

This platform offers UX-specific roles worldwide for all experience levels, whether you’re seeking full-time or part-time work. The site claims to be the top destination for UX jobs, and given the volume of new listings added daily, this may very well be true. Signing up for their weekly roundup is a great way to stay updated on the latest opportunities.

Ideate Labs

If you've just completed a bootcamp or a UX design course and are looking for junior UX design positions with less than two years of experience, Ideate Labs is a valuable resource. While the site’s design may not be the most polished, the unique roles listed and the quality of the information presented quickly overshadow any concerns.

Design Jobs Board

I don’t remember exactly when, but Design Jobs Board was likely the first job site I ever saved. It’s still going strong! The vibrant interface might become overwhelming after a while, but it remains one of the top boards for finding UX positions in the UK, especially at agencies. Currently, filtering exclusively for UX roles isn’t an option, but the agencies and companies here often seek multidisciplinary skill sets, making it worthwhile to explore.

Interns.Design

I recently discovered this promising site featuring paid design internships and resources to launch your career. How fantastic is that? I wish it had been around when I was starting out! You can explore entry-level positions with exciting companies, either remotely or in North America.

+1 | Online Design Communities (Slack, Facebook Groups)

I saved what might be the best resource for last. Thanks to the increasing number of design communities (and the pandemic), design professionals have become well-connected through engaging Slack channels and Clubhouse rooms. There are numerous enlightening discussions taking place, but the best part is how easy it is to connect with active professionals and hear about new job postings before they’re widely shared (often not listed elsewhere).

To gain access to these exclusive circles, you may need to invest in yourself by purchasing a course that offers an invitation to these channels (often alongside mentorship). From my experience, such investments can be invaluable for your growth as a designer.

Here are some of my favorite Slack and Facebook group communities:

• SuperHi: Flexible online courses for creative individuals, fostering a community for learning coding, design, project management, and more.
• Designlab: Mentor-led online design education focused on quality and outcomes.
• The Futur: An online education platform filled with content, courses, and tools to enhance your design skills and build better creative businesses.
