Team Vision

HR professionals face overwhelming complexity and inefficiency due to disparate systems, manual processes, and lack of real-time data. This results in time-consuming tasks, fragmented data, and limited actionable insights, making it hard to make informed decisions, improve employee engagement, and align HR activities with organizational goals. An integrated HR dashboard solves these issues by consolidating data, automating processes, and providing real-time analytics, enabling HR teams to work more efficiently and strategically.

Some of the concept of the tasks :

- Check Absenteeism Chart

- Select period of time

- Join the upcoming meeting

- Find "name of the employee"

- Change the bank information of the employee

- Create a post 

- Check "employee's happiness

- Create a New Employee

We also asked them:

  • How easy was it to navigate the dashboard (1-5)?

  • Did you find what you needed quickly (Yes/No)?

  • Any issues encountered? Please explain.

  • Rate the overall user experience (1-5). 

  • Any suggestions for improvement?

We also provided some A/B Testing but it was more internally.

The process is not a start-to-finish sequence; it involves continuous iteration and revisiting previous steps. We are always learning, which allows us to constantly improve our designs and decisions.
