Meanwhile, local businesses struggle to hire reliable temporary staff quickly. JobHunt connects students with local businesses for short-term job opportunities efficiently.

The JobHunt project focused on creating a mobile app to help students find temporary jobs from local businesses. Key features included a user-friendly design, job search functionality, profile creation, job postings, and real-time notifications. The project was developed within the constraints of a bootcamp, which meant working with a tight timeline and limited resources. With a small team and no budget, we relied on free tools and open-source software to complete the app. Additionally, due to time limitations, user testing was minimal, and the team had to manage collaboration across different time zones to keep the project on track.

So, based on our research, we created personas to better understand our users and the different types of people using our app. This helps us design in a way that meets their specific needs, making the experience easier and more effective. By knowing their goals and challenges, we can focus on the right features and make better design choices :)

We create Customer Journey Maps to visually represent the user's experience with the product, identify opportunities, and help the team understand and address user needs and pain points. This process allows us to optimize the overall experience and improve satisfaction.
