Tips for your UX Designer resume

Junior UX resumes need to show your process, not just your deliverables. Mention research → insight → design → test cycles explicitly. Always include portfolio links. Quantify usability improvements with numbers (task completion rate, SUS scores, NPS) wherever possible.
