Mastering Responsive UI Design with Figma

2 Reasons Why Beginners/Job Seekers "Must" Master Responsive Design🤔

First reason. Because it's an important skill that practitioners/interviewers consider crucial. An essential competency for employment(!)

As a product design practitioner and interviewer in the industry, and through UX coaching for beginners, I've gained one key insight: "If you want to get hired, you need to demonstrate the skills that interviewers want to see, not the skills you want to show off." This might seem as obvious and simple as understanding the test maker's intent on the college entrance exam, but in reality, many applicants don't properly consider this, so while gaining experience, the answer is

Second reason. Tremendous improvement in work productivity and better user experience design

Today, users don't just use a single device, but navigate across devices with various screen sizes such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops when using websites or apps. In this environment, designers must create designs that allow users to naturally use services without inconvenience on any screen size.

Looking at the Uber case above, we can see that when using the same service across various devices, while the interface structure and information layout may differ, it maintains an overall consistent user experience. This ability to provide users with a unified experience across different screens is exactly what responsive design enables.

If you understand responsive design and can utilize it properly, your work productivity will improve tremendously. When you design and structure from the beginning to flexibly respond to screen sizes, you reduce the need to repeatedly create separate designs for each device, and by reusing designs, your work speed becomes several times or even dozens of times faster. Additionally, in collaboration with developers, unnecessary modifications and communication costs are reduced, making the design-development connection much more efficient.

As a result, responsive design goes beyond the technology of simply creating "good-looking screens" and is a core practical competency that provides a more consistent experience with less effort.
