Description of Website Selected
The website I selected is LinkedIn. LinkedIn is a social networking platform, but it is primarily focused on job listings and professional resume presentation. Individuals use it to find job openings that match their criteria and qualifications, build their personal resume and impression on employers, and to share their experiences at a particular employer. Organizations use the platform to build their company brand, find potential new hires, and to share their company news.
Why Selected
There are a few different processes or tasks on LinkedIn that can be analyzed from a usability perspective. Some of these include:
- Creating a User Profile
- The process for creating a profile is relatively straightforward, but it does have several issues, such as lack of communication on their use of your email information.
- Networking
- LinkedIn creates a way for individuals and businesses to connect using groups or discussions that help them expand their network.
- Job Search
- Users can form a search query around several specifications, such as industry, location, job title, remote opportunity, and more.
- Sharing of Content Creation
- LinkedIn has features that allow users to post content such as articles, text, images, and other content similar to any other social media platform. Users can also like, comment on, and share these posts.
