INSTRUCTION

 


Task

Task Requirement: 

  • We have to use either Adobe XD or figma to create our own resume.
  • This prototype should include structured content such as personal details, education, work experience, skills, and projects, organized in a logical and prioritized manner. 
  • Focus on designing the layout with consistent typography, color palette, and appropriate spacing, incorporating relevant visual elements like images and icons. 
  • Ensure the prototype is responsive and adheres to web design best practices, including accessibility and usability. 
At first we are told to create our own sketches before starting to digitized them. These are the few sketches that a draw and the references that I founded. 






Sketches :







I choose to digitized the first sketch and this is the final outcome :


After getting the feedback, I make some changes to it: 
  • Stars rating changed to doted
  • Hobbies images changed to be aligned into the same horizontal alignment

  • The name should be aligned on the left side, letting readers read from left to right

  • Personal Information must be real, not false
  • The elements should not be complicated, must be simple
  • Add more information about yourself, and make people interested in hiring you 

  • Every editing was corrected and created using Figma. 


This was the adjustment I made after having all the feedback: Resume 2.0


Final Outcome: PDF Format


FEEDBACK

Week 5 
None

Week 6
Specific Feedback: Star ratings should be represented with dots instead of stars, and images of hobbies need to be aligned horizontally for a cleaner look. The name should be positioned on the left side to align with the natural left-to-right reading flow. It’s crucial to use real personal information and avoid any false details. Keep the design simple and straightforward, and make sure to include enough interesting information about yourself to attract potential employers.


REFLECTION

Experience:

I used Figma to develop a resume prototype, beginning with sketches to determine the format and content. My goal was to create a well-organized and aesthetically pleasing design while including projects, schooling, professional experience, and personal information. Using a unified color scheme, adequate spacing, and consistent font were all part of the digitization process, along with making sure the design was responsive and followed web design best practices.

Observation:

I found that combining feedback was essential to improving the design throughout the process. Initial criticism pointed up problems that needed to be fixed for a cleaner appearance, such the usage of star ratings and aligned specialty images.

Findings:

The feedback we got emphasized how important design simplicity and alignment are. This iterative approach showed how important input is to improving the quality of the design, resulting in a final prototype that was polished and satisfied all project criteria.
