I have worked closely with Chris McConkie, a FamilySearch UX designer, for the past year. Chris was my mentor during my internship at FamilySearch, and I believe the presentation he gives in this episode will be of great benefit to UX design students and junior-level designers.TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Intro01:15 - Chris’ Introduction02:17 - Industrial Design06:00 - We’re All Imposters08:00 - The Power of Networking17:40 - Get Experience19:19 - Keep Good Documentation24:10 - Manage Your Time27:11 - Validate Assumptions31:54 - Right Tools at the Right Time37:25 - Collaborate Often40:30 - Be an Expert46:23 - Keep it Simple48:40 - Outro
