Project Overview

Following an initial design exploration in the previous module, I developed the concept further and began defining it as a formal major project. My focus at this stage was establishing a clear, achievable plan for the research and design work that would follow.

introduction

The vision for CareerHud started with me questioning why creative career-building consumes so much energy despite it being such a wonderful career path. I spent 3 months exploring this space, conducting surveys, speaking to early-career professionals and recent graduates as well as mentors and accomplished professionals. I translated this research into personas and early prototypes. Once I felt like I had something, the next stage was to turn this project into something official, and therefore it became my Master’s major project focus.
