Signing up to receive mentorship from John is the best decision I've made in my UX career journey. He keenly understands how to position case studies for hiring managers. He suggested redesigning a web app to highlight innovative features across 3 user journeys. Together, we are incorporating specific scenarios, lo-fi wireframes, hi-fi prototypes, and concept testing in the design process. Throughout the process, he offers detailed feedback to elevate the product. He is prompt to respond to inquiries and doesn’t hesitate to provide suggestions for new directions. Most of all, I value John's continued dedication to mentorship.
