Founders should find PMF them selfs. Find a co-founder with some product sense. Figma aint that hard.

@sentry_co i haven't used figma, but it's in the stack for a product i'm supporting currently. it looks intuitive.

If you're just beginning, consider dedicating some time to mastering Figma and possibly exploring a nocode tool for building your landing page. This gives you a decent foundation in design. When the time comes to onboard a freelancer or hire a full-time designer, your collaborative efforts will be much better than otherwise IMO.

The best way to find reliable UIUX designers to build your product it to follow these steps: 1. Make sure what type of designer you are looking for. The Level of designer (Junior, Senior), the budget you have for the designer, How big is your product. 2. Look out for designers that fit your requirements at LinkedIn, product hunt etc. 3. reach out to designers with a short description and its better to mention the budget range to avoid any unnecessary hassles later. Ask them out if they are open for online conversation. 4. have quality conversation with the designer regarding their career, their vision regarding design. Make your visions and requirements regarding your product clear with the designer. 5. If they agree to it, you have your designer. Else, approach the next one on the line. You can never judge a UIUX designer simply by looking at their portfolio. It's the meaningful conversations that can actually help discover a proper Product designer. Hey, I am a product designer myself :)

I'm still convinced that the best place to find a designer is Behance. There you can see a full case study and see how the designer thinks.

Upwork is a good place to start, but it all depends on how large of a lift it is. If you plan on building out an entire platform then definitely consider hiring internally even if it’s part time. I have worked with three UI/UX hires and you have to remember that they are artists, each of them have a different style that they may incorporate or suggest, so unless you have a solid understanding of what you are looking for than it’s worth extensively reviewing their portfolios to make sure you both are a good fit for each other 😊

@fam_socialfinance absolutely, you're spot on. While UI/UX design involves creativity, what matters most in the context of hiring for your project is the designer's experience and expertise, especially within your industry or a related one. It's about finding someone who not only understands design principles but also has a solid grasp of the unique challenges and user expectations within your specific domain. So, prioritizing industry experience or similar projects in their portfolio can greatly enhance the success of your collaboration.

Upwork's good if you're looking to hire people.

To find reliable UI/UX designers, consider exploring reputable online platforms like Dribbble, Behance, and LinkedIn, and don't forget to check their portfolios, previous work experience, and client testimonials to ensure quality and reliability.

@monoshitsu1974 they are also on here on ph! 🌟🙂

@monoshitsu1974 I'd second Dribbble and Behance if quality output is what you're after.

One approach to finding qualified UI/UX designers is to look through portfolios and reviews on freelancing websites like Upwork and Fiverr. In addition, you should ask around in your industry for personal referrals, as these usually lead to trustworthy employees.

Dribbble and Behance are definitely good ones. You can see the visual language that the designer uses. Like colors, typography, and imagery to convey messages and emotions.

I'm thrilled to explore new opportunities, and I'm seeking insights on how to discover skilled, trustworthy UI/UX designers to craft an engaging and intuitive product—let's connect and share wisdom

In addition to what others have said already, try Angellist, Hired.com, Dribbble, Workingnotworking, and of course Linkedin. I wouldn't bother with fiverr, and not many designers I know use behance anymore either...
Sandy
maybe try using ai tools to start if you are unsure about testing the waters. follow ui/ux people who are active on social media.

For reliable i would search small digital agencies, and talk to them about houry rate / hours they can work for you per month. I mean that's how my agency is working with people who building their product. I found it perfect solution, because you know what you pay for, and on the other hand you can work in sprints, week one design, second week developmment, third testing + fixing bugs and start over.
