Wish I could give more than 1 like to this video 🙌
Key points for me :
1. Unlock the possibility of compounding the effects of different skills.
2. Personal experiences and hobbies can also add up to create something which is very unique to yourself.
3. Plato's cave - Facing a blank wall, prisoner's reality of shadows.
4. Confidence is a byproduct of learning something new.
5. Negotiation is an integral part of a designer's primary skill set.
Hats off to you man 🎩 Keep creating n sharing please!
I second you, Abhishek 👍
Abhishek...You are so analytical.. made a point wise review... Truly a useful video..,
Thank you Abhishek! :D Glad to know that you found it useful and that a beautiful sum-up of the whole video :D
@@saptarshipr And yes those practical examples are much needed with theory.
15mins with so much value, clear points and even examples, thank you sir for putting this out there. Just discovered you and I'm truly astounded, subscribed!
Can't believe this is your 2nd video after the teaser, such high quality content.
The power of a professional.
Thanks a lot!! :D
This is by far the best CZcams channel I have come across!!! Hope to learn a lot from this gold mine!
Thanks a lot! 😃🙌
Crisp & Clear .. good going Sapta ! 🙋
Just came across to your channel, must say you're doing something amazing for aspiring designers who doesn't know a lot of nitty gritty about this industry yet. I'm from one of those aspiring designer Thanking you for what're you doing for us.
Shreyasi.
Thanks for posting this man. much needed stuff for me at this point. Also, i just made a wild guess of you being an IITian while watching this video which to my surprise, turned out to be true.
Nailed it like a boss. 😀
Confidence speaks a lot while negotiating, not being desperate to accept whatever is being offered. But it is scenario based. People who doesn't have any job, hardly can afford negotiation.
Yeah, it's about confidence. A beginner may be very valuable but just because they are not confident yet, they may lose out.
Watched the entire video without a single skip in the same sitting. Sending many thanks from Dubai! 🙌❤️
Hey Amogh... Thanks a lot! :) Lots of love from India.
P E R F E C T

I really was focused on each and every word that you said in this video. This was so helpful. Looking forward to implement the said things in my upcoming interview!
the whole content of the video came to a full circle when you said: "negotiation is a key skill of a Designer". Can't agree more. Got to learn a lot from here. Thanks.
Thank you, Sukanya! :) You may want to subscribe then :D

Sapta, you nailed it like a boss. 👏
Thank you so much 😀

Awesome explanation and steps to negotiate, thanks!
Can you please start a series for self taught designers or just explaining your own journey?

Really worth watching it🙌🙌👏👏
Great tips for budding designers🙏
You made us hooked to your channel only in first two videos❤️🙌
Looking forward to upcoming videos
Thank you so much 😀
Your examples are always out of the box 😊
Thank you, Prashanth! :D I like to use analogies and examples :)
Wonderful Content Saptarshi. This gives a good guidance to people know their worth. Thanks for the video
You are welcome, Ashwin! :) I try my best to prepare the content in a way which can be understood by a beginner as well as an expert.
Haha Plato's Cave, nice one.
Very valuable I saved your video in my list for future guidance too. 🙏👍😊
Glad it was helpful, Siddharth :)
It was an amazing video. Thank you so much buddy
You are welcome :)
Thanks for this much needed 👍🏻
Thank you Sameer :)
Very informative! And Yes of course confidence begets confidence, No one wants to hand money to someone who behaves like they don’t deserve it, or has no idea what to do with it.
Trust and be confident in your knowledge, skills and value which your work will bring and price as much as you want. Because we can always negotiate down from a price that was too high, but We can’t recover from a price that was too low.
Yeah... Values are core of everything. Everything is based on that. If you cant add value, no matter how good you speak and negotiate, nothing will happen in the long run.
Nice explanation Sapta! Very different video from a designer's perspective.
Glad you liked it, Saurav :) I hope it was helpful.
These are some really useful tips. Thanks :)
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much making this video
You're welcome, Ankit! :)
huge respect !

Amazing.. love to hear you more.

Thank you, Alok :) Please spread the word if you like the channel :)
Thanks, Tutun da😊
I thought there will be a cliffhanger at the end of the episode for the next one like you did in the last video, please do that, it was a nice touch! 😋
Sure ;)
Yeah ! Joydeep, you are right. That was awesome 😄
Sapta boss.. Can't thank you enough!!
Hey Akarsha.. Feels great to know that this was helpful! :D
Keep up the good work!
Thank you, Rishabh :)
Thanks for this video bro 🙂
There's so much to learn from you sir, thanks for this video on negotiation 👏👏. Your examples of yourself are way good.
Well I often come to some points while working on something new. It feels like I must have known some of the visual design, parts of web design to actually showcase, some UI/UX/interaction design for look, feel and experience, some of cad areas as well and of course as you said motion designs. While learning I usually get lost in track of time.
How you cop up with the main parameter in every design i.e. Time factor.
I would like to see a video on this too.
You are welcome, Pratik! :) Yes, It's always a good to have some idea about everything.
Thanks for the video sir was very valuable 😍💯
Glad to hear that
It's really helpful Saptarshi..
Thanks a ton!
Killing it 🔥
Thanks man!! :D
Hey Sapta Sir, I'm a big fan of your work! This video is so informative and insightful.
Can you make a video on how to get your first job as a UX designer?
I'm about to graduate, amidst this pandemic, and in this job hunting race, there seems to be little to no room for freshers.
It'll be great, if you can talk about this.
Hey Koyena.. Yes, I plan to make a video on portfolio. That should cover most of the things 🙂
Wow! great video
Thank you, Dolly :)
wonderful
thank u so much
You are most welcome
good one Sapta :)
Thank you, Keshav :)
Hi, thanks for the videos, they are extremely helpful. Can you please make a video on how one with no design experience (and maybe some coding experience) get into UX/UI Design?
Thanks a lot! Yep, I plan to make something for self-taught folks who are new in this field :)
@@saptarshipr yeah ....im waiting for that
Way to go Sapta. I'm super happy to see you grow like this.
But wait, Four parts and three fingers? 🤔😂😂
😂Imaginary finger
+1 but he managed to add one in the next second. :)
so so good
Thank you, Ansh!! :D
great job buddy
Thank you 😃
This is so goood sir🤩🤩
Thank you, Jatin :)
Absolutely amazing..... The fact that we must analyse the offer, take some time off & get back with relevant facts is awesome.... But many a times employers keep pushing you like are you interested??.... Share your thoughts via text, the main thing is that they are not giving you time to think about it.... What's your take on that Sapta?
They must give you the time! It's a big decision and you HAVE the right to take your own time. Recruiters may push you to accept it as soon as possible because for them, it may be about closing a ticket or something. For you, its a life decision. But having said that, be empathetic to them as well. Try and get back within a 2-3 days maybe :)
Thanks for the video 🥺🙈
Welcome!! I hope that was useful :D
@@saptarshipr yes it was indeed useful I have made some mistakes mentioned in the video and now I seem more motivated and prepared 🙈
Awesome one ! Looking forward for more super awesome content ! I'm also a designer , curious to know what are different type of design process people follow in different companies! Can you explain the design process you follow in Swiggy ?! ;)
Thank you, Hari :) Yes, I do plan to speak about processes and rules.
@@saptarshipr Please do.
Clear on the subject, thaught and have the power of making people listen to you. Thanks for a great and informative video once again. After working several years on Design, my only experience is that "Everyone knows design" they think, the design is just to knowing tools like Photoshop and others. That's why they ask for, to do a job in Rs.200!!. Yes, you are right, we need to improve our skills first. But we need to market ourself also and sometimes say no to cheap offers.
Absolutely!
Excellent explanation ,you have inborn capacity of delivering lectures
Awesome presentation
Really appreciated 👏👏
Please make an video on
" Design Thinking vs Product Thinking "
Thank you, Yakhub! :) I have actually made a similar video. You may check this out czcams.com/video/TYGsWk545-I/video.html
@@saptarshipr Thanks for the information. If possible could you explain that in more detail
It will be really helpful 🙂
Yakhub Shaik Sure. I ll try to 🙂
@@saptarshipr thanks
Thanks for sharing man, I now have a different view :)
You're welcome, Jayu! Glad to know :)
Thank you 🙏🏻
You’re welcome 😊
Nice video....
Thank you, Anurag :)
Does UI UX designer use After effects
Sapta, It will be great for the industry if you create a video on ROI of UX.
and why Most of the Stakeholders, Product Owners think UX is insignificant?
Hi Sapta, Can you make a video on how to create a design system with a live example of a website or app? Thank you!
Great suggestion! Sure, let me plan it.
What kind of jobs would I get if I were an after effect user...do motion designer illustrate their own character or anything for animation.. I'm really bad at drawing.. I had an exam on Adobe illustrator I failed..but I passed on After effects.. I'm looking forward to your reply..😊
How about a video on costing and preparing a design proposals for freelance projects.
Hey Rishabh.. I do intend to make a video on pricing for freelancers, what is also known as hourly rate. Keep watching this space :)
Thanks Sapta , that really gave me confidence :) Can you make a video on how designers should design for both Android & ios? , because these two are two different design systems.. like we have separate developers for android & ios, do designers also design separately for both the systems ( I mean like does a single designer in the team does all the work?)
Hey Shubham, glad you hear that the video helped you :) I plan to make a video on Design Systems. That should cover all these things :) Keep watching this space :)
Short answer would be.. You can manage with a single design for both Android and iOS :) Will elaborate on that on a video maybe :)
I'm learning blender after seeing some shots on dribbble using 3d characters and elements in UI
so I'm learning that not intense just basics
Basics are the first steps towards advanced stuff! :D
I am Jack of All Trades: Master of only few. Improving.
Great! Master of few isn't bad at all 😃 Just continue being master at newer things as well
Wonderful video dude, I just had a different expectation which was something regarding 'How much is a designer paid in India?' Maybe that could be the title of some upcoming video.
Thank you, Aditya! :) Yes, thats a different topic :)
Any book you recommend to work on then skill of negotiation..really looking forward ...
Book? Wasn't this video good enough? :)
The full saying is actually “a jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one.”
Do you think we should revel our current salary?
Great one. 8:28 reminded me of Dragon Ball Z. 😅
I see what you are saying :D
Great content!! Waiting for the next one..
Very soon :)
Sir, may you please make a video how UX designer practically do their work in a company..?
If yess, that could be great for all of us(your viewers)...
Noted :) I ll try and make something along those lines.
Does it was a good stormy night that day, when you were broadcasting?🤔😊✌️
I guess it was :P Do you hear the thunder?
Brother , I need few help in UI designing
Sure! How can I help you?
Hey a humble request from me. Plz let me know that if UPID NOIDA is good for b.des or not? Plz i request plzz
The whole phrase is: a jack of all trades and a master of none, is oftentimes better than a master of one.
William Shakespeare
Can you make a video on creativity?
Whoa!! Thats a very broad and abstract topic. Maybe I will touch base some parts of it in context :)
Hey can u do some of new innovations and AR?
Noted. I will try to :)
Can we get some design tutorial or how to improve designs
Yes, hands-on tutorials will come very soon :)
Thank you for this great content and wonderful explanation.
I always wanted to develop skills that are required to take up a career in Designing, But for some or other reason the journey remains Incomplete. Hope that the next video would be on how to make your dream of taking up design as a career - A Reality.
Thanks for inspiring Sapta.
Hey Rupesh! Thanks for liking my work :) I will certainly make a video on that. Maynot be the very next one, but it will come soon :)
Sir i am a btech student and I really wanted to be a product designer.....But my family thinks its not the best option to chose m.des after b.tech.Bcz they only knows pursuing mtech mba and ms after btech.So that they prefer these option.But I really wanna chose design as my career.In your openion what about chosing m.des after btech EEE?? What about the job opportunities and salary packages?
Hey Sarthak.. It's natural for your family to think like that about design because it's a relatively new profession. Your parents may not have heard of many success stories of designers. Hence they are not yet convinced that it would be good for you. One main concern of Indian parents is that they feel that design may not pay them well. I suggest you show them my video where I have spoken about my financial growth over 6 years :)
@@saptarshipr thank you sir I was really worried❤️
Hi Sir, is there any chances to get job in any European country after completing m des from IIT?
I guess, I replied to this already :)
@@saptarshipr thank you Sir... I'll watch your video again🙂
@@purneshwarsahu199 i mean, i replied to the same comment that you have posted on a different video
@@saptarshipr yes Sir..i got it later on😅 thanks again.
How would you tackle this "What's the salary expectation?"
Do we need to answer it before the final round of the interview??
You may, but you need not. You can always choose to hear from the employer first before you make your move. Or, if you have a number in mind, you can always quote it.
@@saptarshipr Right..Thanks a lot for your advice!!
And this is why IIT/NIT/BITS tags matter.
No it doesn't. I m sorry to say, but this is just an excuse you are giving yourself.
Lmao, I guess just being a product designer should treat once self as a product and promote. :)
:D
Nice !! your makeup is visible :)
Ha ha.. 😂
@@saptarshipr well I like the recipe 👏👏 hope to see more from you.
Sir i can't even find an intern...
Internship? Yes, ofcourse. Why not?
