OVERVIEW<\/span><\/p>

Astronaut is a Software as a Service (SaaS) platform designed to make the recruitment process easier for recruiters and help them create a simple, fast, and effective Q&A session for candidates.\u00a0<\/p>

In order to improve the user experience and the user interface of Astronaut, the dashboard’s complexity must be addressed. The user experience needs to feel intuitive, understandable, and sleek.<\/p>

The redesign aims to enhance clarity and increase efficiency, from the existing users to new users.<\/p>
