I AM here to help you find your creative & competitive edge • I was based in 🇩🇰 Copenhagen briefly & now live in 🇮🇳 Bangalore, India.
👋 My IRL name is Abhinav Chhikara, but you can call me abnux.
I was enrolled in computer science for my undergrad at MIT Manipal when I accidentally stumbled upon the entire world of UI/UX design.
I started documenting my journey on this channel about 6 years ago & I’m happy to report that after 11 years in this field - I still love design.
I’m currently a design educator and founder @10kdesigners • I was previously the Head of Design at Unacademy where I was responsible for building the first design team.
On the side, I’ve done a lot of weird, wild and wondrous design + startup + lifestyle experiments that I can’t wait for you to discover.
Welcome to the rabbit hole, come on in.

Hi, please talk about industries that one can explore as UX designer, I guess the scope is vast and none is talking about it.
Having that growth mindset isn't that easy

The is the most insightful UX Design career breakdown on the internet.
This is so helpful, pls is it possible to remove or reduce the background music?🙏
Will re record this video soon with updated examples
@@abnux thanks for your response
The background music is a distraction🥲
I Start learning UI UX now in 2024. Am I late?
If you find it interesting and want to pursue something at the intersection of design, tech & business - not late at all. Welcome :)
Next video request: How to become a 10x designer?
Thankyou so much for these inghts man!
the claim that professional designers in companies sits and design 7-12hrs/day is ludacris and false. As it is with developers, if you are lucky you get to properly sit down and design for maybe 4 hrs a day..MAYBE!!! The majority of time is spent on meetings, research, evaluations, meetings, discussions, meetings, navigating office politics, did i say meetings? I think ypu might be refering to what you should be doing while learning and that i misunderstood what you were saying..anyways..Good video and insight for those curious about the field for sure, but..yeah, some claims are way off , hehe 😁 have a good one 👍
Don't take too long to come back as 1 year🥲
Someone whos starting this year... Does they mean people who will attend 10kdesigners or everyone.
Loved the way you explained! Thank you!
Aren’t we pumping out new designers in a large scale?
Great video!
Sir, I have a question do we really need a degree or certificate to land a job even if we have skills and a good portfolio?
Nope you don't. Certificates don't matter, it's more of the experience or network that it represents. The reason to go for a college or a program is to make connections, have a routine, accountability from mentors etc. If you can do all of that without it, then good. However if you're not in a major tech city like SF/BLR or creative circles in NY/MUM/DEL or good at building an online presence, can be quite difficult to break out. The reason we started the 10kdesigners cohort is exactly for the reasons above. Nine cohorts in and going great! Wins here: 10kdesigners.com/wins
Hello sir myself suman, recently i complete my BCA degree under MAKAUT UNIVERSITY, but i have not Much interest in coding so i think i switch to ui& ux design, its a good decision or not, and i completed my BCA degree that's why i not joined to the college because its a another degree so i joined in to a institute its a right choice, and i think join to KOLKATA MAAC CHOWRNGEE , please say it's good decesion or not, please help me i am fully tensed. Or suggest a best institute for west bengal kolkata site please say bhaiya🙏🙏
Join whatever you want, but the self learning and working on projects you will have to do yourself. I have no idea about maac, but like most physical coaching centres, they will teach you only the tools. Don’t be tensed brother, it will instil fear and stop you from being creative & figuring things out.
So it's a good choice to switch ui &ux design industry @@abnux
Before Figma we had Adobe XD.
Really inspired me to learn more!, thanx for the video
Hi do you need a website at cheap rates
No
Such a lovely watch! OG abnux is back. Keep these coming, highly inspiring. On a side note, the 10k promo section was well-made!
Hi Sir, I have a Master's degree in Psychology but I'm looking for a career change and was hoping to transition into the UX design industry. But recently, the evolving use of AI has left me worried and I'm afraid to make this transition. What would you suggest? Your insights will be really helpful.
Would definitely suggest watching the whole video - I think the second half (T, C, P) will answer your question. If you’re willing to put in the work to cultivate those, then it’s a great choice for you!
@@abnuxThank you, Sir
I'm an LMFT. Also making the change.
Crazy articulation , great video .
Hello sir , I just passed my 12 standard with science stream but now i switched form science to design and i pursued b.des UX design which is 4 year ug course , i am on right path or not ?
Nice! My suggestion would be work on your portfolio with the kinds of projects you want to do in job, even if they are not covered in class. Which college btw?
@@abnux Gujarat University, Ahmedabad
People usually pay for such kinds of information, thank you bro.
Abhinav ur smile yr😚😚🫠🫠🫠🫠
😊
@abnux Hello Abhinav, I am currently learning UI/UX design, and during this learning period, I watched your video. Since then, you have become the best for me, and I aspire to be like you. If I ever become capable enough, I would definitely like to meet you. The best thing I found about you is that when you listen to people in your podcast, I feel that you know a lot but you don't show off.❤️❤️
Hello gurujii I am 12th passout and I need your help right now i am in a situation where i have to choose between collage(engineering) or ui/ux .what should i do if i am not choosing collage because i have been doing ui/ux from last 1 year and i dont trust design schools ro waste my time there ,so what can i do now please reply gurujii🙏
bro you can do UI UX along with your engineering college as well. UI UX jobs are saturated, there are so many designers already. And most important part is, you won't get a good salary after sometime. Engineers have really good packages, not all them but there is a scope. In UI UX, it is very hard to go beyond 20LPA in India ( Most designers don't even earn this much).
Your choice which career you want to go for - most of your learning will anyway happen via self learning, practice & projects. The video has your answer (T, C, P), watch the full thing But for the college decision, go wherever you can find the best network. Don’t just join a random college that you’ll hate, go live in a good city
Same situation is with me But I love graphic design and I don't want to do engineering therefore I pursued b.des in UX/UI can I go for UX design career .
Sir pls answer
guru is back
I started my career because of you thanks for being a light in the world of ui ux
Thanks for sharing this, really helpful 👍
That is really interesting. Guess who is back! ❤
Thanks :)
likewise, hope it was useful 🤝
bro you look like shakespeare....only some people know who I'm talking about
Mah mannn😂😂😂
@@rohitb405 😅🤣🤣
why do i feel we’re thinking of different shakespeares here 😋
Crazy insights
Sir, im software developer working in banglore wfh from 2yrs Im bit scared due to uncertainties in market due to layoffs...I was planning to learn UI/UX tools to add on my skills but still it seems AI will replace that as well ...not sure what path i should take from here...Im reactjs dev
Do watch the whole video - the answer is to not be average & risk dying, find something that you can & WILL become exceptional at.
Thank you@@abnux
Ur insights are crazy! Thanks for sharing 🎉
guruji is so backk
Sirr, my budget is 70 to 80k, I have to take laptop or macbook for UI UX design and animation, please tell me which laptop or Macbook should I buy or its name please tell me. ❤️
MacBook M1 or M2 are best. M3 if available in budget
I bought macbook air m1 last year, its working best, & I'm also using M2 Air(for office work)
@@Jaspreet.Designs ok brother m2 lunga thanks
@@abnuxSir, will it be better if I take Pro?? will there be a difference
HOW ARE YOU NOT AGING EVEN A LITTLE BIT?
😆😂
Reuploaded due to some issues in the previous. This is a very special video for me and marks an inflection point in my life and work. Hope you all get some insights and inspiration from this 🙏
Yea
Heh, Abhinav, I want to have a 1O1 talk with you, let me know where cn u find u? ADPList?
Best one so far!!!
🤝🤝
At a starting stage most startups want output instead of outcomes, a really early stage most of the founders want to get the product (MVP) ready asap for seed or pre seed and after that focus on outcomes.
