THE CHALLENGE /
Freelance recruiters used various tools like job boards, emails, and spreadsheets to find jobs, manage candidates, and track progress, resulting in a slow and confusing process. The challenge was to design a recruiter-first platform that simplified workflows and gave recruiters clear visibility into their work.
RESEARCH INSIGHTS /
Speed drives recruiter decisions
Pay and urgency drive action
Lack of visibility is a major pain
Manual work breaks momentum
THE SOLUTION /
I designed a recruiter-first platform that makes freelance hiring easier to manage. The product helps recruiters find jobs faster, keep track of the roles they own, and clearly see what’s happening with their candidates. By reducing manual work and confusion, the platform helps recruiters place candidates faster and helps companies hire more reliably.
Find the right roles, fast
A clean, scannable list of open roles where recruiters can quickly see pay, experience, and urgency to decide which jobs to work on.
Narrow down roles in seconds
Simple filters and search help recruiters quickly find relevant roles without scrolling through unnecessary listings.
Understand the role at a glance
A clear overview of job details like experience, location, pay, and openings so recruiters can quickly assess fit.
Know more about the employer
Key company details like domain, size, and background give recruiters the context they need before submitting candidates.
Your active recruiting workbench
All claimed roles are grouped in one place, helping recruiters stay focused on the jobs they’re actively working on.
Submit candidates without breaking flow
A side panel lets recruiters add candidate details quickly without leaving the current screen.
Track every candidate in one place
A unified view of all submitted candidates and their current status across roles.
See the full candidate journey
A clear timeline shows every step of the candidate’s progress, from submission to interview stages.
Reuse candidates across roles
Recruiters can submit the same candidate to another role without re-entering information in just a few clicks, saving time and effort.
THE IMPACT /
The new recruiter portal helped recruiters spend less time looking for jobs and more time hiring candidates. They could clearly see the roles they were working on and track what was happening with each candidate. This made hiring faster, easier, and more reliable for both recruiters and companies.
~55% less time spent finding jobs
Recruiters spent more time recruiting and not job searching.
Submissions within 48 Hours
Complete candidate tracking
Improved multi-role efficiency
WHAT I LEARNED /
I learned that designing around real user workflows makes a big difference. Small changes that reduce confusion and save time can greatly improve how people work. For professional tools, making things simple and clear is often more valuable than adding more features.
