Process
Research & Analysis: We conducted user interviews, surveys, and analyzed in-app analytics to understand the pain points and user needs. We also studied competitor apps and industry trends to gather insights
Information Architecture: Based on the research findings, we restructured the app's navigation and content, prioritizing features and information according to user needs.
Wireframing & Prototyping: We designed low-fidelity wireframes to visualize the new layout and navigation, iteratively refining them based on user feedback. Afterward, we built a high-fidelity, interactive prototype to test the design.
Usability Testing: We conducted usability tests with a diverse group of users to validate the design and identify areas for improvement. Based on the feedback, we made necessary adjustments to the design.
Visual Design & Style Guide: We developed a cohesive visual language, including color schemes, typography, and iconography, ensuring consistency throughout the app. We also created a style guide to maintain design consistency in future updates.
What do the users want?
After conducting a heuristics evaluation, I sent out an online survey to the students asking if they have ever visited this website and what they feel about the website. From those students, 5 participants were selected for usability testing. The user stories were formed on the bases of the testing insights and results.

Testing the current site 🧪️
The current Hireskill was tested for various scenarios to understand if users could perform tasks without help. There were 5 participants and the tests were conducted remotely via Zoom.
Recruitment Issues:
Problem: Difficulty in recruiting representative users for testing.
Solution: Clearly define user personas and use diverse recruitment channels. Consider using incentives to encourage participation.
Unrealistic Test Scenarios:
Problem: Test scenarios that do not mirror real-world user interactions.
Solution: Develop realistic and contextually relevant scenarios that mimic actual usage patterns and goals.
Leading Questions:
Problem: Asking questions that guide users toward a particular response.
Solution: Frame questions neutrally and avoid providing clues about the expected answers. Use open-ended questions to encourage honest feedback.
