A revitalized Jobs Listings Panel that empowers users to effortlessly find the perfect job opportunity within Kent.
The Jobs Listings Panel, initially conceived as a dynamic tool to connect job seekers with real-time opportunities, faced challenges in achieving its full potential. Originally titled "People Also Viewed," the panel lacked consistent user engagement and failed to highlight crucial functionalities, ultimately impacting application rates.
The original design offered the undeniable advantage of showcasing new job postings as they appeared. This allowed users to swiftly react, either by immediately applying or saving promising positions for future consideration. This real-time aspect was intended to create a sense of immediacy and empower users to stay ahead of the competition.
Despite the real-time advantage, the initial iteration suffered from significant drawbacks. With only two call-to-action buttons - one for viewing the full job description and the other for saving the job – the panel presented a limited range of interaction. Crucially, analytics data revealed a low conversion rate from saved jobs to actual applications. Users rarely revisited or applied to jobs they had saved, indicating a disconnect between the "save" function and the ultimate goal of securing employment.
This underperformance rendered the panel ineffective and, ultimately, redundant. Its limited functionality and low application conversion negatively impacted overall user engagement and the platform's effectiveness in connecting candidates with relevant job opportunities on a weekly and monthly basis. The need for a redesign became clear: the panel had to evolve to better serve its intended purpose and drive meaningful user action.
