Imagine a (digital) world with no (technical) limitations...
As an intern with Hibob, the creators of bob, a highly customizable, web-based human resources information system (HRIS), I completed a content audit, synthesized team research, made microcopy suggestions, and recommended a user flow redesign. This case study focuses on the user flow redesign.
Team: solo redesign based on 9-person team research and incorporating applicable elements of finalized microcopy from 3-person UX writing team
Duration: Aug–Oct 2021 (8 weeks)
Skills applied: content audit, user flow mapping, information architecture, UX writing, content design, wireframing, peer review, presentation
I have communicated across boundaries—digital and geographic—my entire life.
Ever since my earliest experiences of struggling to learn a new language and customs, my strong core value has been ****to listen deeply to people, in their own words. Through 15+ years’ work as a language professional, I have honed these content design skills:
**Solve problems creatively** within micro and macro contexts
**Make the complex seem simple** in plain language
**Tailor messages** for distinct audiences
Fun tidbit: I also make ceramic tableware—an ancient form of interaction design.
❝It's hard to imagine what the Hibob project would have been like without Emily. She was fully engaged from day one and immediately showed great initiative and top problem-solving skills.❞
