About the project

  • The client

    QTalent platform hosts the largest community of professionals in food, beverage, CPG, and cannabis manufacturing across Canada. It allows F&B professionals to tell their stories beyond the resume and apply to the company even if it has no current openings. HR specialists spend less time and effort looking for talents as they have a list of applications at hand even before the vacancy appears. And the employee has more chances to find a company with corporate values and culture that would fit them. 

  • Challenge

    It was important to create an ecosystem of two products, interlink their functionality and maintain the common design. Moreover, QTalent for companies had to bring maximum benefit to employers. Our team aimed to include all functions necessary for the competitive product. And yet we wanted to keep the interface simple and not overload it. Another brain-teaser to mention in this HR case study was to find and implement features that would distinguish the QTalent HR platform from rivals. 

  • Our solution

    Arounda team developed a complex UX and UI design for the human resource platform in several iterations. We investigated the user flow and created a design to convey an atmosphere of friendliness and openness. The light and intuitive interface encourages recruiters and job seekers to interact with the platform. We also connected QTalent for companies with QTalent for professionals both visually and logically.

UI/UX Design of the Platform 

The QTalent platform is a two-in-one SaaS product. It includes the QTalent for professionals app and the QTalent for companies app with unified functionality, logic, and design. Our team aimed for a cozy candidate-centric design appealing to the target audience. We discussed the workflow with the client and kept them updated throughout the process.

QTalent for companies

We started with the design of the QTalent for companies. It was a set of specifications for a database of employee profiles available for recruiters both via web and mobile versions. Arounda had to create UX/UI for the HR side of the Qtalent platform from scratch. We describe the process later in this SaaS case study.

QTalent for professionals

When the most tricky and demanding part of the project was completed, we switched to QTalent for professionals. We improved the existing UX and redesigned the UI to keep the two solutions aligned.

Attracting more talents

As for QTalent for professionals, our task was to redesign the existing UX and update the UI for mobile and web applications. This part of the platform allows candidates to find vacancies in line with their skills, knowledge, and location.
