I was tasked with this challenge as a step of the hiring process for a product based company. I have referred to the company as Alpha from here.

Redesign the job description input field on Alpha’s “Create New Job” process to address the issues of poor quality job descriptions, discriminatory language, and the inclusion of unauthorized contact information.

Alpha is an ATS system that helps users post ATS-based career opportunities and helps suitable candidates faster.

Alpha users often struggle with creating clear and compliant job descriptions. Currently, users face challenges such as:1. Clarity and Structure:&nbsp;Job descriptions often lack proper segmentation into sections like roles, responsibilities, and company information.2. Compliance:&nbsp;Job descriptions sometimes contain discriminatory language related to age, gender, or marital status, which can cause them to be flagged on job boards like LinkedIn.3. Unauthorized Information:&nbsp;Users sometimes include phone numbers, WhatsApp links, or external URLs, which is against the policies of many job boards.4. Excessive Length:&nbsp;Some users might create overly long job descriptions that are not concise, which can lead to important details being buried in too much text. This can deter potential applicants who prefer to quickly scan job postings.5. Lack of Keywords:&nbsp;Users might omit critical keywords that job seekers use in their search queries. Without these keywords, the job posting might not appear in search results or might not attract the right candidates.

My goal was to come up with a flow where the user is in control of keeping different sections inside the job description. These sections are categorized as Responsibilities, Qualifications, About company, Perks etc:

I started my process with ideation on how to move forward with this challenge, Understand other ATS system, how they handle job descriptions etc:

Next I started doing basic wireframes in my notepad, sketching out ideas trying to come up with flows that made sense. Once I got that part right , I moved to my tool of choice: Figma, and started basic wireframes fo my idea.

When a user comes into JD, there will already be a category in edit mode by default.

The user saves the first category after making edits.

To add the next category, the user taps on the “add category” button.

A drop-down shows an available list of categories.

The user selects one and that category is created in edit mode.

Now if the user wants to delete a saved category, they hover over that category and click on the delete icon that appears.

If the user wants to edit a saved category, they hover over it and click on the edit icon which appears.

To rearrange categories in case of multiple categories, they can drag the category box to the wanted position.

I started the HiFi process by making notes on colors, fonts, and styles used in the original website. Then converted LoFi mocks to Hifi mocks in figma, applying the correct styling, colors, and fonts. The next step was to create components wherever necessary and move to prototyping.

Design Components and states:

Clarity and Structure: Now Job descriptions have proper segmentation into sections like responsibilities, Qualifications and company information.

Compliance &amp; Unauthorized Information: The built in AI in the text input field captures any vulgar or discriminatory language. This also detects external URLs, Mobile numbers, etc: marking that particular word, users can generate new versions with help of the inbuilt “write with AI” feature

Excessive Length: The user is notified of the word limit to make them stay within the maximum number of characters.

Lack of Keywords: Users will be notified of potential keywords which can be added in banners on the right side of that particular category section. This area can also be used to let users know of any ideas or new features

This Challenge was different for me in a lot of ways, most of the time, challenges involve redesigning, entires page, or app design, coming up with new designs etc:. But here the challenge lied in design thinking, and coming up with a user-friendly flow.

Let me know of any other ideas you would try here and I appreciate your inputs. Thanks for reading. Cheers!
