PROBLEM SPACE:
The job searching process is a personal experience, one in which the seeker must measure skills against company requirements while considering how personal beliefs align with an employer of interest.
Job matching methods neglect a fundamental factor - value alignment between employee and employer.
Job seekers want value-based matching to be an essential and routine part of the process.
How might we help prospective employees discover industries or employers who better align with their personal beliefs and goals?
The HandledBar

PROBLEM SPACE:
The HandledBar, a bike company, aims to enhance user experience and increase revenue through improvements in mobile-web browsing and checkout. Currently, a significant portion of users (50%) leave without adding items to their cart, possibly due to difficulty in selecting the right bike. Additionally, 70% abandon their carts at the registration page, suggesting friction with mandatory account creation.
The hypothesis is that by providing comprehensive information, such as detailed descriptions and high-quality images plus a bike finder tool and guest checkout option will reduce cart abandonment and increase conversion rates.
