Team

Led whole design process from 0 to 1 till development.

My Role:

Product Design & Interaction Designer

People involved:

1x Product Designer

2x Stakeholders (CEO & CTO)

🎯 Identifying problems and proposing effective solutions

Problem Statement:

  • How might we increase the application usability for recruiters to find quality candidates.

  • Users optimise their time on the platform by applying a 75% screen size to view the maximum number of candidates.

  • Outdated UI with inconsistent design patterns.

  • Complicated flows for both recruiters and referrers

UX Audit points on the current live platform

Overall Objective

  • Increase Consistency : Overall look & feel

  • Increase Legibility : Texts are legible and readable

  • Improve Accessibility : Proper contrast

  • Improve Hierarchy : General purpose of the screen and clear CTA(s)

⚠️ Research & Insights

  • Recruiters wanted quick trust signals on candidates

  • Referrers didn’t fully understand reward mechanics

  • AI Apply wasn’t clearly communicated

  • Job seekers wanted more transparency on progress

  • Mobile users found layout hard to navigate

Conducted research on various SaaS platforms to analyze their design approaches and identify best practices to establish benchmarks for our product.

📊 Final Impact & Results

  • ✅ Core color system, grid, and spacing

  • ✅ Reusable UI components (cards, filters, tables, modals)

  • ✔ Designed for responsiveness from day one

  • ✅ Build a robust design system for scalability

💡 Project Learning

Learnings


  • B2B SaaS UX requires deep clarity and fast decision-making

  • Microcopy and visual hierarchy build user trust

  • Shipping with speed doesn't mean compromising on quality
