Challenge

Job boards are losing their position as the go to place for connecting talent and employers. Dice’s main product offering needs to expand to stay relevant in the ever evolving talent acquisition industry.

Process

Dice wanted to break away from internal constraints and create a new experience for their customers. However early ideas to completely redesign the web application were met with numerous business and technical challenges. Change on the web would have to be an evolution, rolled out over time. Product, design and data science turned to the mobile app as their proving ground. 

 
 
 
 

Solution

Mobile first design led the way for the next generation of applications at Dice. Ideas seeded in a small screen, grow into features that stretch across multiple platforms. We build, test and iterate on mobile. Ultimately verifying features and design patterns before bringing them to the web. To unify the experience across platforms, a design system was created. Individual UI elements from each platform were combined into a universal UI kit and style guide with examples of various interaction states and layouts of different views.

 
 
 
 

Our goal is to evolve the job board into a next generation career platform. The mobile offerings have received positive ratings on the native app stores, including 4.8+ stars on iOS. The search and job discovery tools receive high praise for their ease of use and streamlined flows. The platform also offers skills management, salary estimators, and career path tools to help job seekers level-up their careers.
