About Jill Tague

Principal/ Staff Product Designer at Boeing Employees’ Credit Union

Ever wonder what it’s like to work in corporate Finance as an end-to-end product designer for financial institutions around the world? I'm talking investment firms in Australasia, brokerage firms you drive by in your hometown, and big banking apps that you probably, most likely, have on your phone right now....

Yep, that's me. I'm the designer creating those interfaces!

I've been fortunate enough to carve out a path in my career that solely revolves around financial product design. And I'm here to teach you how I do it as you leverage your career beyond Sr. Designer.

Let me help you break into fintech as a senior designer and find a home in creating products and experiences that move the needle and impact thousands of customers a day.

*Note: only working with mentees that are already in corporate America or have worked already in a Sr. Designer role. Thank you!

Sessions with Jill Tague

• Nail the Final Loop Interview (30 min): To provide the best service to my mentees, I've outlined what the session can and cannot provide: What this session is! -Final Loops/ Presentations in final stage of interview processes only for designers applying to sr. level positions and above What it is not: -Not a general portfolio review - must be catered to a final interview with a targeted audience (ex: "JPMC Design Leadership Team") Do you have a Final Loop scheduled with Amazon, Capital One, MasterCard, Visa, JPMC, or others? Been there, babe! (It's ok...you're doing great!) Let me help you tell your story in a compelling manor that will help give you competitor advantage to the other candidates. In these mentorship sessions, gain the skills and confidence to answer challenging questions, demonstrate your expertise, and leave a lasting impression. We'll conduct mock interviews & equip you with effective interview techniques. Join this mentorship to excel in job interviews and land your desired position.
• Journey Maps Juxtaposition - Portfolio Enhancement (60 min): Join us for an engaging session that delves into the art of journey mapping, where storytelling meets customer experience. Together, we will explore the nuances of customer interactions with a product or service, highlighting their highs and lows to create a vivid picture of how users perceive their experiences. This interactive discussion will enable participants to visualize the reality of customer usage, whether it is exceptional, subpar, or somewhere in between. As part of our collaborative effort, we will guide you in crafting a To-Be journey map that incorporates design recommendations aimed at enhancing the customer experience. By juxtaposing the As-Is and To-Be maps, you will uncover the gaps and opportunities for improvement, illustrating the transformative power of effective journey mapping. This session promises to not only sharpen your skillset, but will provide you experience to speak to in an interview. This way of doing mapping has gotten me hired at Capital One and Boeing Employee Credit Union. You got this. Let's do this!
