A designer must be good at UX (processes) and UI (pure design).<p>You make them sound like they&#x27;re mediocre at UI.
What&#x27;s their level at UX?<p>I know I&#x27;m mediocre at producing (vs evaluating) UI, but I also know I am great at producing UX.<p>Maybe they just ain&#x27;t the right professional for your startup right now.<p>Or maybe they should focus on UX, and you should hire someone else for UI.<p>Again, maybe they can improve on UI if properly trained. As in a professional training course, more than as in a colleague training them on the job.
