2022 Lead UX/UI Designer (Rolling Intake)

About Cebu Pacific Air

Cebu Pacific first took to the skies on March 8, 1996, flying from Manila to its hometown Cebu. It has since been committed to flying where Filipinos are – from its first international flight to Hong Kong back in 2001 to its first low-cost long-haul flight to Dubai in 2013.

Your role

• Strategically manages and drives UX/ UI design projects from conceptualization to implementation.
• Acts as a liaison to articulate feedback and design integrity of projects among designers, developers, product owners, and product managers.
• Mentor other team members to help them develop their skills.
• Translates the overall vision and concepts from Product Managers into wireframes, mockups, or prototypes, for final handoff to Development teams.
• Help identify design problems and devise elegant solutions.
• Take a user-centered design approach and rapidly test and iterate designs efficiently and intelligently.
• Produce designs that are user-friendly and which will bring in the highest conversion rates.
• Ensures consistency in visual elements and develops and maintains style guides, screen designs/wireframes, and prototypes, as needed.

Training, development & rotations

Budget airline Cebu Pacific Air launched a training program for new pilots to secure requirements for its expanding fleet while broadening the pool of potential candidates by initially shouldering traditionally high tuition fees.

Cebu Pacific said its cadet pilot trading program would create 240 professional pilots over five years.

Candidates will be carefully screened and will undergo a 56-week training program, after which they will become Cebu Pacific's first officers flying domestic and international routes.

Compensation & benefits

Former employees from major job sites found the low salary grade to be an issue, but this is often countered by the variety of fringe benefits including free flights (unlimited free domestic tickets and limited free international tickets), HMO, government-mandated benefits, and medicine allowance, among others. 

Company culture

Employees from major job sites frequently commented on the 'fun' and 'casual' work environment that improved their confidence and communication skills. However, the fast-paced environment of a high-traffic budget airline and long hours left some workers burnt out, especially during peak seasons. A 'friendly' and ‘supportive’ management makes work bearable. 

About you

• Bachelor's Degree in Graphic Design or UX/UI Design.
• Certified User-centered design practitioner.

How to apply

• For non-cabin crew roles, applicants attend a series of interviews (one-on-one or panel) with an HR representative and the department manager. Some employees reported an essay-type questionnaire. 
• Cabin crew applicants will go through a more rigorous recruitment process. Appearance, personality, and physical fitness are more valued than academic qualifications, according to reviews. 
• The process begins with screening, where an HR representative assesses physical requirements. The airline puts a premium on height (a requirement of 5’3” for females and 5’7” for males), clear complexion, a great smile, and skin void of tattoos and blemishes. Next is an 'impact interview' where applicants must answer interview questions about their strengths and weaknesses, among others. The last step is an interview with the HR head.
