THIS ⬆️

I really wanted to add in something to the article, which I came to learn recently on how most companies (even Facebook and Twitter), have stopped hiring UX Designers. Instead they have Product Designers (UI + UX Combined) and a UX Researcher, who works on the complete holistic experience of the use (more on the big picture side of things).

This means even the industry is making the shift of merging UI and UX designers. I might guess this leads to more collaboration, than some kind of assembly-line-like structure in the design process they previously had.

All pointing to how important Collaboration is 🙌

That's interesting to know! It does make sense, but interesting that FB is already heading that route!
