About Ines Anic

User Researcher at Spotify

👋 Hi! I am a user researcher specializing in foundational research, usability testing, and research operations.

Before I became a researcher, I have worn many hats, including those of an optician, SEO specialist, corporate blogger, and social media manager. I have experience working as a research team of one, as well as collaborating closely with amazing teams of researchers.

I am ready and eager to help junior to mid-level researchers, or usability specialists, find their footing in these spaces.

I value collaboration, curiosity, teamwork, and vulnerability, and I have fun when I am solving problems and can recognize myself growing as a human and a researcher.

Ideas of topics you can talk to me about:

Transitioning into user research from an unrelated field UX research for designers (Design research) Kicking off & working as a research team of one A researcher’s portfolio How work and responsibilities change as you transition from entry-level to mid-level to senior as a researcher Dealing with imposter syndrome

Feel free to reach out, and suggest topics you would like to receive guidance around, and I will see if I can be of help.
