Context

The project focused on developing a user registration feature for a gig work app called Flexygig. The app aims to connect employers with temporary workers, facilitating employment opportunities.

Constraints

  • Two user flows for gig workers and employees in one app.

  • Lack of detailed screen context.

  • Diverse audience: non-tech-savvy gig workers to business owners.

  • Tight project timeline of four weeks.

We achieved:

  • Streamlined onboarding with clear explanations and a "Skip" option.

  • Categorized work and skills sections for easy navigation and reduced cognitive load.

  • Employer verification process to enhance trust and safety.

  • Review profile step for user confirmation before final submission.

Understanding the users
What are the key factors when applying for and securing a job?

Applying and hiring online for temporary work often means data security and genuine postings are top of users' minds along with schedule flexibility and financial stability.

First Design Iterations
How do we choose which design direction to present to our users?

Each of us created our own interpretation of the best way to present the user interface, but the challenge was determining which design was most user-friendly. We addressed this by leaning on user feedback to guide us.
