Hey everyone,
I’m a UX/UI designer with ~6 years of experience. I was recently laid off after working at the same company for most of my career, and now I’m trying to get back into the market.
Honestly… it’s been tougher than I expected.
Most of my real work is under NDA, so I can’t show the actual projects I’ve worked on. I’ve rebuilt my portfolio using a mix of personal projects, some redacted case studies, and a few conceptual redesigns — but I’m not really sure if I’m positioning myself well or if something feels off.
Would really appreciate some honest feedback on:
- Overall portfolio / structure
- Case studies (too shallow? too long? unclear?)
- How I handled NDA work
- Anything that might be killing my chances without me realizing

Right now I’m applying but not getting much traction, so I’m trying to figure out if the issue is my portfolio or just the current market (or both).
Be as honest as you want I’d rather fix problems than keep guessing.
Thanks a lot 🙏
