◆ UI/UX RECRUITING

Hire UI/UX designers

Senior UI/UX designers, vetted for product depth and working style, shortlisted in days. You interview a curated 3–5, and you pay only when you hire.

◆ WHY MIR · HIRE

Why teams hire UI/UX designers through us

Vetted on real product work

Every candidate is screened on shipped product design, research process and design-system thinking — not decorative concept shots that never met a real user.

Designers who ship

People who can run research, design the flow, build the system and hand off cleanly to engineering — the full loop, not just pretty mockups.

Pay only when you hire

Success-fee model: no retainer, no upfront cost. We earn when you land a designer you actually keep.

◆ THE DIFFERENTIATOR

We assess fit, not just CVs

Every UI/UX candidate is screened for skill and run through a structured work-style assessment — powered by JobCannon, our own live assessment platform (1,500+ skills, 2,500+ career profiles). You see how a person actually works and where they fit on your team, before you spend an interview slot on them. Fewer mis-hires, faster yes/no.

Do you place product designers and researchers?

Yes — product designers, UX researchers and design-system specialists are all in our pool. Specify the remit in the brief and we will shortlist for it.
