Theme : Job Vacancy Website

Case A — Karir.com

1. Feedback for the search bar :

Job Vacancy Search Bar in Karir.com

• Reduce in words usage. First of all I think the the message that they are trying to tell is clear and I can immediately understand it, it is to find jobs based on position, company name or keywords. But I see that the last word that says “Kunci” (Eng: Key) is being cutted off in the search bar. And since the main message here for the the jobseeker is to search based on position, company name, and keywords, it could be displayed just “Jabatan, Nama Perusahaan atau Kata Kunci” (Eng: Position, Company Name, or Keywords”).
• Capital letters for consistency. I think overall it’s good and no one really pay any attention to it right but I think a little improvement on details would be great! Since other words are capitalized, the words “kata kunci” should too.
• Add search icon. Same like the second point, I think it’s good to have consistency.
• Add space between two search bars. It’s just a little happy bumps but I think adding the space between it could increase the “breathing area”. And since both function the same, I implement the Proximity Law where things that are similar should be brought closer to each other and that’s why I only add a little space between them.
• “Ubah” (Eng: Change) word removal. I have tried to tap the button with no location being filled but nothing happens. But when I fill it with location name and I tap the “Ubah” button, it deletes the location name. So since it function the same as delete, I think it could be removed to increase simplicity.
• “Cari Lowongan” (Eng: Search Job Vacancy) button removal. Since there’s already “Cari Lowongan” Word on the very left and whenever user tap Enter/ Return it function pretty much the same as “Cari Lowongan” button, I think it could be removed as well.
