Indorse, skill validation platform, which uses a global network of experts to assess the coding abilities of job seekers. The platform caters to both recruiters and candidates.
Problem
A confusing mobile experience
I was tasked with fixing the user journey for their "recruiter admin panel", which aimed to reduce
on-boarding time and encourage recruiters to create an assessment. While the existing design had all the required components, it was too messy. There were one too many options and was overwhelming for a first time user. The drop off rate was higher right after sign up process. Users didn't know where to start.
The existing mobile experience
The existing mobile view for the platform is not user friendly at all. A lot of functionality is inaccessible, unless you scroll. For a first time user it is confusing. Resulting in higher number of drop offs.
I worked with the business and marketing team together to figure out the business objectives and refined the user flow.

Solution
A flawless mobile experience
With more recruiters using Indorse on their handheld devices as they explore the platform, the company wanted to make sure its mobile experience was perfect.

Redesigning the form for the small screen
People want to know what they’re getting themselves into. Our job was to make it very clear, no matter how small their screen. So we introduced an "on-boarding" step which set user's expectations. As well as changed the assessment form to more intuitive format.

Simplified the process of sharing the link with candidates after completing the form.

Managing the candidates on mobile
Sorting through whetted candidates is a relatively complicated business.
Originally designed for the desktop, making it work with the limitations of mobile was a challenge. The user research showed that the users viewed candidates in a pattern. So the process was simplified by separating sorting options and by adding smart parameters to the list, where candidates would be shown with a "best score - poor score" order.

Final Thoughts
It's an ongoing project where we prioritised the mobile first experience. We will be focusing on implementing several new features and also simplifying the web experience along with it.
