An innovative interface for modern medical careers

Metropolis

For our Capstone project, we are working with the Innovation Hub client, Metropolis. For healthcare organizations, filling open positions is expensive. Metropolis uses automated and machine learning technology to generate job matches between healthcare organizations and healthcare workers. With Metropolis, we are working on improving an already existing product. We have three main areas of focus: SEO improvement, brand identity/marketing, and user experience for the existing website, additional features, and new mobile application.
