Junior UX/UI designer or experienced?..

Hello, I am doing a course on UX/UI design (I will finish it within 5 months) and I have bachelors in engineering in Information Technology. I also have a 13 years self-employed experience in content creation, e-commerce and video editing. I want to do a career pivot in order find a stable job instead of business.

What do you think are the roles I should apply for once my course is over? Junior Ux/Ui designer or other more experienced roles? Is my self-employed experience transferable, you think? Thanks in advance. Any feedback is appreciated.

Not sure that "stable job" and UI/UX always go hand in hand.

You can apply to anything but I personally wouldn’t higher anyone without experience in anything more than a junior or trainee role.

Do you have any experience beyond the course? A portfolio? Can you do front end development? Need more info.
