HR App
A mobile app that would allow managers to access employee info on mobile
situation
Head of HR requested me to conceptualize and visualize a mobile app that company execs across the globe can use to quickly retrieve employee information like organograms, birthdays, projects and perform basic tasks like call/text each other and grant leaves. Parts of the app have been implemented.
task
My job was to create wireframes for HR app taking input from HR reps.
action
I defined the scope of the project and information architecture by interviewing users in HR department and senior management. The research suggested that the user would like to have organizational hierarchy, employee info, upcoming birthdays, notifications for managers from team such as leave requests, vacancy, contracts, etc.
The screens were created keeping in mind mobile usage so there is no text heavy input. The app is designed around receiving notifications and responding to them with quick and easy actions that are pre-configured while the user is on the go. For instance the user could send instant birthday message to anyone without having to type it out, could get status about international offices and search for any employee across the globe, view reporting structures, approve training and leaves, and view the health of the projects.
Result
The concept was received positively by the head of HR. The organogram feature was implemented first by the Internal Apps team.
