Vacancies website.

Commissioned by Fleks (the company where I did my internship) I was asked to design a website that offers internships, it must be designed in way so users can place a vacancy but also reply on a vacancy. I was given a file with the visual identity of the company, it also contained various patterns such as calendar, search and filter system and so on. After the briefing I immediately went out on competitive research, I was curious about how similar websites are designed, what pages does it contain, what content and also what data they need from their users.

Tools used Photoshop Sketch

Website
Not available

Important during the process:

  • Do competitive analyses to find out how similar websites work

  • The ability to recognise and implement design patterns

  • Implement the company visual identity

  • Communicate with colleagues

After doing research, I started working and on designing screens in Sketch, because the file I reserved earlier on already contained blocks that I could use, it was easy to implement them. I have been in contact several times with my supervisor about the progress and also with the developer who would make this a working website by scripting it. At a certain point my supervisor informed about the fact that he had contact with the client company, they were satisfied with the way it looked but they indicated that it had to be more minimalistic because it was too extensive and too complex.

The idea is to have a website take as less possible data from the users, some pages were also not useful for their strategy and therefor a number of pages and options have been left out in the definitive version. In short the website I designed looked good but was too advanced, I made it more compact and simplistic like they asked. Once I was done I transferred my work to the developer who had to script it and make a fully functioning website out of it. My internship was done right after I transferred my work, I contacted the company to ask for the end result but unfortunately the website was never build due to budget.
