UX design and start ups
2 points by p-gregory on May 11, 2011 | hide | past | favorite
I am a UX (User Experience) designer and design researcher who has spent the last 7 years working at consultancies. I'd like to begin working more with start ups and wanted to get some insight into what start up are looking for (skills, expectations, etc.) and how to best sell myself. A few questions specifically come to mind:

At what point do start ups consider working with UX designers?

What are your top 3 expectations of A UX designer?

What is the one thing you need to be convinced of before hiring a designer?
