The fact is if you’re worth your weight in gold, you’ll probably start in a valuable supportive role and then quickly climb to a management or senior level position, which is great exposure to the industry and business that employs designers and developers specializing in User Experience. Of equal importance is a solid education in User Experience design and a passion for keeping up with industry trends and best practices. Although there’s no guarantee that having a degree without experience will get you a job, it won’t exactly hurt your chances.
