Job descriptions for Gen Z
The Brief
How long do you spend reading a job description? LinkedIn says 14 seconds is the average. So why are job seekers still expected to read essays when the average attention span is 8 seconds? Dayinthelife.io aims to revitalise how people look for work and absorb content.
Project Summary
There are numerous benefits to video job descriptions including increased engagement, subsequently attracting more talent for organisations. Due to the short timeline and budget, research was limited to secondary research and the clients experience in the industry. This allowed me to build a list of requirements and an MVP for approval.
My Impact
I was able to take complete ownership of the product development process and outline the requirements for each individual page.
Takeaways
Working closely with the software engineer my understanding of building for the front-end has improved dramatically.
I actively sought feedback during the project. I spent time presenting work to the other stakeholders which meant I became more comfortable presenting and sharing my work.
