“It wasn’t when I got my first job as a designer, I felt I had to achieve some degree of skill before I deserved the label. I’m not even sure where I had set that internal bar, but it took at least a couple of years. The beauty of interaction design being a relatively new profession is that it’s been easy for people to get into the field. The problem with interaction design being a relatively new profession is the same thing…there are lots of people with the job title who have great intentions and no idea what they’re doing. This can affect perceptions of the profession as a whole, which is one of many reasons I think it’s important to evangelize good techniques.” (Kicker Studio)
