Evolve

Lead Product Designer

Oct 2019 – Jan 2021

Hired by the founder of Debut, Charlie Taylor as the first hire, I got the opportunity to work in this amazing, VC backed startup at the earliest stage, to explore opportunities to replace transactional recruitment processes with an informal approach just like dating.

We have evaluated a myriad of different ideas and approaches through workshops, focus groups and qualitative interviewing and quickly iterated on different features of the product to see what both the business and private users would value most.

After we picked the likeliest route to MVP, we have built a brilliant and lean developer and marketing team, then in a few months, we launched a basic MVP just as the first lockdown hit and reorganised the entire recruitment industry. Therefore the founding fathers made the hard decision to hibernate the project for the time being.
