Hi Everyone, I recently just came across the Tech nation application for endorsement, and I have few concerns about it before thinking of applying.
I currently work at a Tech education company, where people are taught web development, Data Analyst, UI/UX Design and many more. I’m the lead UI/UX designer at the company, I teach the UI/UX Design course at the academy as well as design products for the developers/ students to work on. I won the Staff of the Year recognition award last year, and I got a salary raise two times after my Probationary period within 10 months of joining the company.
I have designed various digital products for freelance clients and developers at the company, so I have a vast portfolios of products designed by me. I recently started a mentorship program - LET’S GET MENTORED, so as to assist my past students on their continuous learning process into the field
I also previously participated in an international bootcamp organised by a founding body in the United State of America in 2021, where I won various exceptional badge awards recognition.
For my references, I planned on using the following acquaintances:
- The CEO of the company I currently work for, who is currently based in Canada.
- The Founder of the organisation that organised the bootcamp I participated in, who is also the VP, Product design at Trulioo in the U.S.
- A Senior Designer I worked with when participating on a project. OR,
- The CEO of the Pharmaceutical company I designed an e-commerce product for, which was to enhance sales of their goods.
My major concern is I don’t know if all this can accounts to the criteria evidence needed for the endorsement or how else should I show the evidence aside the awards and badges won.
Thanks in anticipation.
