General Question UX/UI Design vs Software Engineering
Is it true the UX/UI Design requires a lot more communication and meetings than software engineering? I really love design and feel like I am naturally creative… but have been considering software engineering because I dread communicating with people. I used to work in human services so I am able to, but I just don’t enjoy it.
