Project Overview
In an era of rapid organizational growth, managing the influx of job applications can be overwhelming. App Hire, our newly developed Applicant Tracking System (ATS), addresses this challenge by optimizing the hiring process. This case study explores the design and functionalities of "App Hire," showcasing how it enhances efficiency and user experience for recruiters and hiring managers.

PROBLEM

The organization faced significant difficulties in handling a large volume of job applications, resulting in inefficiencies and errors:
Overwhelming Application Volume:
The current system struggled to manage the high number of incoming applications, leading to delays and missed opportunities.
Duplication Issues:
Duplicate applications complicated tracking and management, further slowing down the hiring process.
Future Demand:
With a projected need for 80,000 personnel by 2030, the organization required a scalable solution to meet future recruitment demands.
Streamlined Application Process:
Simplified and user-friendly application interfaces to attract and retain potential candidates.
Automated Screening Tools:
Advanced algorithms to screen resumes and applications for specific keywords and qualifications, enabling quick identification of suitable candidates.
Improved Data Management:
Robust systems to prevent duplication and ensure all data is organized and easily accessible, reducing errors and inefficiencies.
Efficient Recruitment Workflow:
Tools and training resources for recruiters and hiring managers to conduct effective interviews and make informed decisions swiftly.

SOLUTION

App Hire was designed to address these challenges, focusing on enhancing the hiring process through:

Stakeholder Interviews

During the ideation phase of the project, we conducted stakeholder interviews to build new personas and to inform the design. Together with the team, we prepared an interview script with 10 open-ended questions, focusing on our target audiences’ values, motivations, and daily routines.

User Personas

We wanted to form a deeper understanding of our users' goals, needs, experiences, and behaviours. So, we created user personas for all segments. They were based on user interviews and surveys, and we kept updating them throughout the project as we gathered more data. We used these personas whenever we wanted to step out of ourselves and reconsider our initial ideas.

User Flow

To create a digital experience that is easy to use and meets the needs of the user we made user flow for this ATS system.

Wireframes

Using Figma, I translated the first sketches into mid-fidelity wireframes. Then, I improved them by adding a few relevant stock assets and copies. At this stage, the wireframes were defined enough for some user testing. Based on some tests, I’ve made a few alternations and moved on to creating high-fidelity prototypes.

User Interface Designs

Once the usability issues were resolved, I moved on to design the final screens in Figma. My goal was to create a visual identity that’s aligned with the brand’s values and message, which is: “brand motto”. Also, I’ve checked the competition and took a deep dive into my catalog of references for inspiration.
