I solved the challenge of creating a seamless platform where hotels can easily connect with job seekers, enabling both parties to efficiently manage job postings, profiles, and communication in the tourism and hospitality industry.

Bringing the hospitality industry closer by designing a platform that simplifies hiring and career growth—building connections effortlessly through intuitive design.

Project Overview

The DryKing Tourism Career platform addresses the challenge of connecting hotels with qualified candidates in the tourism industry. Our project aimed to design a user-friendly platform that allows hotels to manage job postings, events, and blogs, while candidates can easily create profiles, apply for jobs, and stay updated with industry trends. The platform is designed to be fully responsive, enhancing usability across all devices.

Approach and Communication with Stakeholders

Our approach involved thorough collaboration with stakeholders, including frequent feedback sessions, user testing, and design workshops. We prioritized transparency and clarity, ensuring that stakeholder input guided the design process from the early stages of user research and wireframing to the final user interface design. Regular updates helped keep everyone aligned with the project goals and timeline.

Problems

During the project, we faced challenges such as:

• Balancing the needs of two distinct user groups: employers (hotels) and employees (job seekers).

• Designing a robust filter system for job seekers that would accommodate various criteria without overwhelming users.

The final product was a fully responsive, user-centric platform that bridges the gap between employers and employees in the tourism and hospitality industry. Through intuitive design and comprehensive functionality, we created a platform where job seekers can easily find opportunities, and employers can manage job posts, profiles, and interactions with minimal effort, leading to faster and more effective hiring.
