Hi Everyone, back with me Arina at Digital Diary! My journey as a product designer is not always smooth. I’ve tried to apply for an internship as a product designer/UI-UX designer starting in the 3rd semester. Every day I hunted a job seeker account and apply almost 20 jobs each day but nothing results. At that time I almost wanted to give up because none of the companies I applied for work did not call me for an offering letter. And it always ends at the interview stage. But my prayers have finally been answered. Suddenly, my cell phone rang from a number not listed in my contacts. After I picked it up, it turned out that one of the financial company I had applied called me. I was invited for an interview that same day. Finally, I got an interview and did the case study that was given. The next day I was invited to another interview to talk about the offering letter, salary agreement, working hours, etc. It's really nice. ---//--- A week has passed since the last interview, but th...

Hi Everyone, back with me Arina at My Digital Diary! Time flies very fast! More or less 426 days (and it’s still counting) of my journey as a Product Designer at Mentor Inc. I joined on July 8th, 2021 when I was in the fifth semester.  Mentor Inc. was the place where I grew up and improved my skill. I’ve been with Mentor Inc. since before it became a PT and there were only 3 interns at that time. I am so beyond grateful to have been part of this history. You know, every process is not always smooth, there will be ups and downs, but I was able to get through it all. Because the environment is too fun and enjoyable.   I wanna say massive thanks to Mas Aldi and Mas Armand (I still remember when he sent me a message and gave me an opportunity to join this incredible team. And when the interview process, I have a colliding schedule but I still present my portfolio even though my position was in the security post. It was a really unforgettable moment to me). I am so honored to be t...

Hi Everyone, back with me Arina at My Digital Diary! I never believe it, I have begun my career to being a Product designer. Some of my friends asked me: ‘How can it be?’ ‘What are the steps to learn Product Design?’ That’s the common question when I met them. So, I would like to share about it based on my experience. First thing first, you have to know the reason : ‘Why do you want to be a product designer?’   ‘What has motivated you?’ Apakah karna kamu memang suka dengan mendesign?  Apakah karna memang kamu suka untuk solve problem?   Cari tau alasan kamu kenapa Product Design?   Kenapa ga yang lain?   Ngobrol sama diri kamu sendiri. And If you did and knew the answer, it will make you more spirit rather than you don’t know anymore. The second one is START .   Start to design at a platform that you are comfortable with. I suggest using FIGMA. Figma is a platform with a website based, so it won’t take a lot of your memory on your device.   I highly re...

Dear Allah, Terima kasih untuk ketenangan hati yang selalu ada, Terima kasih untuk sabar yang begitu luas, Terima kasih untuk selalu meleburkan hati ku ketika ia keras,  Terima kasih untuk kesehatan yang selalu Kau titipkan, Terima kasih atas segala kenikmatan yang Kau beri, Terima kasih atas segala rizki baik Mu, Kuat kan aku selalu, Bersamai dan dekaplah aku dimanapun aku menjajaki bumi Mu, Jangan Kau lepaskan aku, karna sungguh aku tak akan sanggup menjalani ini sendiri tanpa diri Mu.
