Onboarding

After chatting with leadership and stakeholders, we learned there was an over 80% abandonment rate in their onboarding process.  We redesigned the onboarding to reduce friction as much as possible by reducing the number of form fields to the required minimum.  Additional info that was needed later on would be asked for at the appropriate time.

Job Search

We performed user testing with some early prototypes and learned that many applicants weren’t even reading job descriptions, but rather applying to 10+ jobs at once.  The job search results screen was designed to contain all pertinent info need to make a decision whether or not to apply, and each job can be applied to using just 2 clicks.

Schedule, Payroll, Timesheets

The entire flow of information through the system was designed, including timesheets, payrolls, their referral and reward system, and more.
