Working at Microsoft in UX design

[12Danny123]

Hi

I'm wanting to work at Microsoft when I'm older, but I'm confused with the requirements to get in

• A BA/BS or higher degree in Graphic Design, Interaction Design, Visual Design or related degree.
• 8+ years of relevant design work experience.
• Experience designing integrated marketing and brand campaigns that span print, packaging and online deliverables.
• Strong portfolio demonstrates attention to detail and mastery of typography, color, layout, etc.
• Strong concepting and visual skills along with an ability to explain your design rationale.
• Knowledge of user-centered design approaches and interaction design best practices.
• Ability to produce high-res visualizations, motion studies and prototypes.
• Excellent Photoshop and Illustrator skills. Experience with AfterEffects a plus.
• Great listening skills, with an open minded and team-oriented approach to design.
• Exceptional communication skills - the ability to make complex areas understandable, demonstrate passion and leadership, and strong presentation skills.
• Self-motivated and directed.
• A strong interest in design and technology trends.

Do I need multiple degrees in Design or what?

Would like someone to help or even better, a MS employee

Thanks

You need one of the degrees listed, read the first bullet point. Everything else comes with experience
