Analogueshifts.com – Redesigning the Website for a Better User Experience
Analogueshifts is a platform connecting global talent to remote job opportunities, offering tools like resume building, job postings, and a vetting system. My goal was to redesign the website to enhance user engagement, clearly showcase features, and streamline the user journey.

1. Discover – Identifying the Challenges

The first step was to understand the problems with the current website and align with user needs and business goals.

Client Goals: Create a modern, responsive website that increases conversions, highlights core features (e.g., job postings and resume builder), and attracts both talents and employers.
User Research: Through analytics and interviews, I uncovered key pain points:

• Users struggled to find relevant information quickly.

• The website lacked a compelling visual hierarchy and clarity in its messaging.
  Key Insight: “Users wanted a streamlined experience that quickly communicated value and reduced navigation friction.”

2. Ideate – Exploring Better Concepts

Armed with insights, I explored new design concepts and layouts to address the challenges.

Wireframing: Created low-fidelity wireframes emphasizing clear navigation, bold headlines, and visually distinct sections for the platform’s features.
Feedback Loop: Collaborated with stakeholders to refine the structure and prioritize user-focused content.
Decision: Settled on a hero section that immediately highlights Analogueshifts’ mission, accompanied by clear CTAs for job seekers and employers.

3. Design – Bringing the Website to Life

The next step was to translate ideas into a high-fidelity, visually appealing design.

Design Tools: Figma was used to build clean, responsive designs with consistent branding.
Visual Hierarchy: Focused on bold typography, clear CTAs, and engaging visuals to draw attention to key features like the resume builder, vetting system, and job postings.
Interactive Elements: Designed intuitive navigation and included interactive components, such as hover effects and scroll animations, to enhance user engagement.
Content Strategy: Simplified text to communicate the platform’s value in a concise and professional tone.

4. Test & Refine – Ensuring a Seamless Experience

To validate the design, I tested it with real users and iterated based on their feedback.

Usability Testing: Conducted tests with both job seekers and employers to ensure the navigation was intuitive and key information was easy to find.
Findings: Users appreciated the simplified flow but suggested adding testimonials and success stories for credibility.
Final Tweaks: Incorporated testimonials, refined button placements, and optimized the design for mobile and desktop responsiveness.

5. Deliver – Launching the Redesigned Website

With the design finalized, I prepared the deliverables and worked with the development team to ensure a smooth handoff.

Design Handoff: Shared Figma files and design specifications with developers, ensuring all elements were well-documented.
Collaboration: Worked closely during development to address implementation challenges and ensure pixel-perfect execution.
Post-Launch Testing: Monitored user feedback and analytics post-launch to confirm improved engagement and conversion rates.

Conclusion:
The redesigned Analogueshifts website now offers a clean, user-friendly interface that effectively communicates its value to both job seekers and employers. The improved navigation, engaging visuals, and clear CTAs make it easier for users to find what they need, resulting in a more impactful digital presence.
