Our user interface shifted over time, to become a resume builder that allows users (international students new to the world of resumes) to follow three steps to building the perfect resume that they need to land the job or internship that they are hoping for.
The first step is to input information about themselves, including biographic information, education experience, work experience, and  leadership experience. Each text box has an example of what should be typed, and a helpful hint sometimes pops up if it is needed. Users can add, edit, and delete experiences as they desire. In this portion of the project, the users can put in all of their past experiences. They can later decide which ones to use. This idea is helpful if a user hopes to make multiple different resumes each with different content, they can choose what to keep and what to remove. We initially considered making this part less structured and allowing users to store in this part any thing that they wanted, whether it be a youtube link, pictures, or something else. As we went about the project, we learned early on that people wanted a more structured opening page, where they were told exactly what they needed and how they needed to type it in. The paper prototype showed us that people want the ability to add, delete, and edit on every level. We thought that they should be able to add more experiences in any category, but people also wanted the ability to add or remove comments.
