With the world at your fingertips...where will you go?
Job boards today are using the word ‘remote’ like a fun new buzzword, making it hard to find truly remote positions in locations you’re eligible to work. With Unpluggd Jobs, job seekers can filter through postings by region and type, so you spend less time on dead ends and more time perfecting that application and brushing up on the required skills so you land the spot you want.
Ideation
The Unpluggd brand is built around freedom and the ability to harness technology to improve lives. It was only logical to bring these elements into the world of work with a job board for our market.
Conceptual Design
Opting for a sleek and simple user interface, we created a space where job seekers would be able to easily find what they’re looking for, with additional resources to help them on their way.
Business Case Development
Companies need employees and people need to work. In a world that’s gone remote, putting these two together has been tougher than expected. We learned from both parties what their biggest pain points are and targeted our site at helping overcome them.
Product Design & Development
The Unpluggd Jobs website underwent multiple rounds of testing to confirm that posting, searching for and finding jobs would be seamless for recruiters and job seekers alike.
Our Process
Research the Competition
There’s no shortage of job aggregator boards out there. We know that. But technology can always be improved upon. We started by looking into the existing platforms and gaining an understanding of what was missing from user experiences.
Survey Stakeholders
The most important part of any product is the users. We wanted to find out which parts of the recruitment/job search process needed most improvement, so we went directly to the target audience.
Develop Key Features
We put together a list of everything that needed to be included based on feedback received, then worked out how to best implement it on the site through wireframe modeling.
Design & Development
Once the features were set and layouts decided, we entered the final phase before shipping. Development ran just under 2 months on this project, not including testing.
Color
As one of our pilot products, it was important for this travel app to carry the Unpluggd brand – crisp and minimal with a fresh spin. Imagery is the main focus here, so we kept the background mellow and used color sparingly as an accent or highlight, allowing the NFT designs and location images to pop.
Typography
Our font choice here was to keep the classic Unpluggd font ‘Inter’ for brand recognition.

Making it easy to find the job you want…
And sharing the resources to help you land it
The goal with Unpluggd Travels is to create a new way for travelers to discover new places, choose their experiences and cherish the memories in this digital era where ownership is king. To make that work, the app has to balance providing a huge amount of visually appealing information to draw users into the possibilities without overwhelming them. How did we do?
Build your dream team
We make it easier for you to sort through candidates to find the skills you need to get that position up and running. Let Unpluggd help you with the legwork.
High Fidelity Design
Deciding on workflows and key MVP features was the main focus of the lofi round of design. A series of flowcharts and wireframes helped us settle on the optimal layout.
