Do you want a UX job?
A book on how to transition to a UX research career
There are dozens of excellent books on how to do research. This is the first book on how to become a researcher.
Every researcher started somewhere. Most of us stumbled into UX from other career paths without any guidance. When I moved into UX research, there was no guide book. So I wrote one.
