Context
Hirein5 is an early-stage recruitment platform that reduces time-to-hire from weeks to five days. I worked as a Product Designer to translate a complex business idea into a usable MVP across three user types Clients, Candidates, and Admins.
PROBLEM
The client had a framework for fast hiring, but lacked a system to do it
There was no product to bring all stakeholders together
The hiring workflow could not be made repeatable
The model could not scale beyond manual operations
Without a platform, the business couldn’t grow. This wasn’t a design problem, it was an execution problem.
WHAT WE DID
In under 4 months, we translated a complex hiring model into a usable MVP
The hiring model worked, but it couldn’t scale without a system. So we:
Mapped the real hiring operation
Across clients, candidates, and internal teams
Studied how similar platforms scale
To understand trust, handoffs, and failure points
Translated business logic into UX
From ad‑hoc steps to repeatable flows
Made workflows explicit
To decrease ambiguity in experience
Our design response focused on three things:
Making roles explicit for clarity
Repeatable flows instead of ad‑hoc coordination
Predictable UI, states, and copy
SOLUTION
We began where hiring decisions are made: the Client experience.
Client's dashboard that they'll use to find and reserve candidates
Reserving a candidate
After the Client sets intent, the Candidate flow carries the hire forward.
Candidate's dashboard
At the end, the Admin experience turns hiring into a repeatable operation.
Admin dashboard
Profile section for Admin
After designing the system, we focused on how to tell its story.
Marketing website that we launched
Alternative design for marketing website that we suggested but didn't take off
CONCLUSION
Expected impact based on research & UX benchmarks:
Reduced client drop‑off
Lower operational overhead
Faster time‑to‑hire for clients
Better Candidate engagement
Impact estimates are directional and based on UX research, competitive benchmarks, and internal design reviews. The platform was delivered as an MVP and not yet measured at scale.
