JobTwine

AI-assisted hiring workflows for recruiters and candidates

Overview

Designing AI-powered experiences across the modern hiring journey. JobTwine is an AI-powered recruitment platform designed to streamline hiring from candidate shortlisting to interviews and feedback. I worked across the AI Shortlisting Agent, AI Human Interviewer Copilot, TryUsOut demo experience, and supporting product communication. My focus was turning complex AI capabilities into clear, actionable experiences for recruiters and interviewers.

The problem

Hiring teams deal with large volumes of resumes, interview information, conversations, and feedback. The opportunity was to use AI to reduce repetitive work while keeping humans in control of important hiring decisions. The challenge was making AI assistance useful without making the hiring process more complicated.

My role

  • Product Designer.
  • I worked across UX/UI design, interaction design, prototyping, reusable components, AI product experiences, and product communication.
  • My work included the AI Shortlisting Agent, AI Human Interviewer Copilot, TryUsOut experience, real-time interview insights, candidate analysis and feedback, and supporting sales decks, newsletters, and marketing content.

Context

Designing AI for high-stakes workflows. Hiring involves information-heavy decisions where AI can process information quickly, but recruiters and interviewers still need to understand the signals and make the final decision. My approach was to design AI as an assistant that reduces repetitive work while keeping human judgement at the centre.

Challenge

Information overload

Hiring teams deal with large volumes of resumes, interview information, conversations, and feedback.

Human decision-making

AI assistance should reduce repetition without removing human judgement from important decisions.

Contextual support

AI needs to appear at the right moments with the right level of detail to be genuinely useful.

Product clarity

AI capabilities must be understandable and actionable across recruiter, interviewer and candidate workflows.

Approach

  1. 01

    Design around the decision, not just the AI.

  2. 02

    Understand — Mapped recruiter and interviewer workflows and identified repetitive, information-heavy tasks.

  3. 03

    Structure — Organized AI-generated information into clear hierarchy, summaries, insights, and actions.

  4. 04

    Assist — Designed contextual AI assistance around the moments where users needed support.

  5. 05

    Validate — Used prototypes and feedback to refine flows, interactions, and visual hierarchy.

Key UX decisions

01
Problem
AI-generated recommendations need useful context, not just a score.
Decision
Show the signal, not just the score — Present useful context alongside AI-generated recommendations.
Why it mattered
Recruiters need to understand the basis of a recommendation before trusting it.
02
Problem
Interview support is most useful when it is in-context and timely.
Decision
Keep AI assistance contextual — Surface help alongside the live interview instead of forcing users between different tools.
Why it mattered
Contextual support reduces friction and improves decision-making in the moment.
03
Problem
AI insights are only valuable if they help the user act.
Decision
Make AI output actionable — Structure insights, questions, analysis, and feedback around what the user needs to do next.
Why it mattered
Actionable output turns AI from a passive system into a practical tool.
04
Problem
Hiring remains a human responsibility even with AI augmentation.
Decision
Design for human + AI collaboration — Let AI provide assistance while the human remains responsible for the final judgement.
Why it mattered
Trust and accountability are essential in high-stakes hiring decisions.
05
Problem
Static marketing is not enough to explain AI product value.
Decision
Let users experience the product — Use TryUsOut to communicate the product through interaction rather than static marketing.
Why it mattered
Interactive product discovery makes the value of the system clearer and more memorable.

Design system

Building reusable patterns across AI workflows. I worked with reusable UI patterns across cards, tables, controls, candidate information, AI recommendations, conversations, feedback, states, navigation, and extension UI.

Components
Cards, tables, controls, candidate information, AI recommendation states.
Patterns
Review flows, interview support, contextual AI prompts, feedback loops.
System foundations
Navigation, states, conversational UI, extension surfaces, reusable product language.

Final experience

Recruiter dashboard

Organised around pending actions and pipeline state so the first screen answers what needs attention today.

AI shortlisting agent

The ranking is presented with its criteria visible and adjustable, keeping the recruiter in the decision.

Meet your interviewer

Choose an interviewer that best matches the role and interview context, giving candidates a more relevant and personalized interview experience.

AI interview experience

Structure, duration and progress are explicit throughout, which is what makes an automated interview feel fair.

Outcome

  • Making AI useful across the hiring workflow.
  • The work translated JobTwine’s AI capabilities into clearer experiences across shortlisting, interviewing, analysis, and feedback.
  • The focus was on making AI contextual, actionable, and supportive rather than simply adding AI to the interface.

The best AI experience does not try to make every decision for the user. Designing JobTwine reinforced that AI becomes more valuable when it is contextual, explainable, and actionable, while the human remains in control.
