User Research
I conducted meetings with HR managers and stakeholders to find out company goals for the project. I created maps and personas to understand the users I’m designing for and their needs. The primary user group are jobseekers.
Research helped determine needs of users in the designs.
Persona: NameÂ
Problem statement:
Craig is working family man, who needs extra money and get his friend a job, but he doesn’t have a way to do both; so he needs an app that lets him refer his friend to a job and make money.Â

[Your notes about goals and thought process]
How and why did you choose which path/s to map?
How did you test and validate the map?
What did the journey mapping reveal?

Starting Design
Sketches
These sketches were meant to be quick design layouts to show to stakeholders to decide on a design that works best for the company's image and works best for development teams.
These are different designs for that give off a the feeling of professionalism, carefreeness, and futurism. Stakeholders and I decide to continue with a simple and professional design.
Wireframes
These are low fidelity wireframes that have been refined from previously chosen sketched designs.
Through internal testing it was found that this basic version was that these wireframes and the prototype created with them good so the basic design will be used for the mockups and high fidelity prototypes.Â
Low-Fidelity Prototype
Usability Testing
Issue 1: Users had a problem finding the apply and refer button
Solution 1: Stuck the apply and refer buttons to the screen so it cannot be scrolled passed.
Issue 2: The bounty button was not working
Solution 2: Connect the button to the proper page.
Refined Design
Mockups
High-Fidelity Prototype
Going Forward
Next Steps
Next I well be conducting research find KPIs for the the high fidelity prototype to an external group. Then fixing any problems found.
After that I will go on to create other features of the application.
