Yesterday, we hosted a conversation to learn how to master user interviews with @joshdixit 🐙. Here are the five main take-outs 👇

4. Take the time to build rapport with the interviewee

5. Speak the participant's language, not yours
🙌🙌🙌
When you're describing a persona, try writing from a 1st-person perspective. This will do 2 things: 1. It will make it easier, both when reading and writing the persona, to step into that person's perspective 2. It will help minimize the influence of gender stereotypes
Research is key but research is not easy. Most early start-ups cannot afford full time UXR in the product team, first PMs have to do the work. 🧑‍🎓 We were proud to have @seiteta in our first batch who learnt the fundamental methods and already applied them in his new job!
Some great opportunities at @Zoopla with the talented @sambambo_ 👇
The Design + Research team is growing at Zoopla! A Research Ops role has opened up to help us improve the speed and rigour of research happening across the org. apply.workable.com/zoopla/j/… Come join us if you'd like to be part of a kind, fun and super talented team ✨.

Excited to see our sponsor @mazedesignHQ launch templates. Spend less time writing the same questions, more time analyzing and improving your product. 🕵️
