How recruiters search for UX designers

Craft keywords are the filter

UX design, product design, interaction, research, content design: each is a separate search. Name the one you want to be hired for.

Tools and methods get typed

Recruiters literally type “Figma”, “usability testing”, “design systems”. Mirror the job post's tool words or miss the results page.

Outcomes open the portfolio

Conversion lifts, task-success gains, shipped products: a number in the headline is what gets the portfolio link clicked.
