Anthony

Graphic design was Anthony’s bottleneck. HireUA set up interviews with 7–8 qualified designers and he hired in the first round.

The Problem

Good Products Lose Users on Bad Screens.

Confusing sign-ups, cluttered dashboards and checkout steps nobody tested cost you conversions every day. Hire someone who designs for the user, not the screenshot.

Risks

01

Friction Nobody Measured

Users drop off at the same step every week, and no one has watched a session recording in months.

Colour palette

02

Pretty, Not Usable

Mockups win internal reviews but fall apart with real content, edge cases and small screens.

Workflow

03

Hand-Off Chaos

Developers rebuild components from screenshots because there’s no design system or spec.

The Role

What a Strong UI/UX Designer Owns

The work between “we have an idea” and “users get it the first time.”

Search and screen

01

User Research

Interviews, session recordings and analytics turned into clear problems to solve.

Workflow

02

Flows & Wireframes

User journeys and low-fidelity wireframes agreed before anyone polishes pixels.

Colour palette

03

UI Design

Clean, on-brand interfaces in Figma for web apps, sites and mobile.

Design handoff

04

Design Systems

Reusable components, tokens and documentation so the product stays consistent.

Detail

05

Usability Testing

Prototypes put in front of real users, then iterated on what they find.

Web

06

Developer Hand-Off

Specs, states and assets developers can build without guessing.

They literally handle everything from sourcing, interview screening, managing, etc”

UI/UX Designer Hiring FAQs

How much does it cost to hire a UI/UX Designer?

Our 2026 Pricing Guide puts full-time remote UI/UX Designers at $2,500–$3,500 a month, depending on seniority and market. That’s what the person earns, not HireUA’s fee.

UI/UX Designer or Graphic Designer?

A UI/UX Designer designs how a product works: flows, screens and interactions. A Graphic Designer focuses on brand, marketing and ad creative. Many teams need both.

Can they build in Webflow or code?

Some can. If you want design and build in one person, see our Webflow Designer page, or pair them with a Front-End Developer.

Do they work in Figma?

Yes. Figma is the default for almost every candidate we present. Tell us your stack and we’ll screen for it.

How quickly can I interview candidates?

Qualified candidates are presented within 5 days of kickoff. Total time to hire depends on how quickly you interview and decide.

How does HireUA charge?

Monthly Hire includes HireUA administering and paying the hire. Direct Hire costs 15% of annual salary, subject to a $3,000 minimum, and you employ the person directly.

How much can I save compared with hiring locally?

Clients save up to 82% compared with hiring locally. The exact number depends on the role, the seniority and the market we recruit from.
