Team

The problem at hand

This team's initiative was to create a digital experience for Truist banking customers.

Examples:

  • - Building out flows like paying off a credit card
  • - Transferring money to an account
  • - High-level information displays: dashboards

I was tasked with finding a better way to surface the PDF walk-throughs hidden in the current help screen. This was to be solved by creating a wizard help solution for displaying information throughout the site.

Organizing my thoughts

  • - Learned new design tools Miro and Adobe XD, agile methodology, and how design is incorporated
  • - Shadowed user testing for new designs
  • - Meet & greets with team members for UX & UI design, content strategy
  • - Shadowed scrum team ceremonies including PI Planning, mid-sprint demo & end of sprint demo, story grooming, feature grooming, design review & design system updates

Figuring out the flow

Began taking the design step-by-step through the process listed below:

COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS to give an understanding of what the product looks like in the market.

As an intern, I didn't have a full understanding of our product yet so I did my own user testing which allowed me to find major issues with a few important areas.

Other Examples

DOCUMENTING USER FLOWS to understand the functionality behind the "FAQ/self-help window" and give me the chance to organize the information in a more visual way.

Done in Miro! -->

I also CONDUCTED RESEARCH on customer reactions to chatbots and conflicting views on using them exclusively for 'immediate help'.

Applying my thoughts and ideas

As you can tell, there are different pros and cons to keeping a chatbot, and through my research I realized that customers should be given a blended approach.

This BLENDED APPROACH combines a chatbot for customer interaction with access to informative articles and relevant question links for issue resolution.

I crafted LOW-FIDELITY WIREFRAMES incorporating the above information, presenting them for feedback during a 'Design Critique' session. This proved invaluable for receiving input from skilled designers and was a highlight of my internship.

Design Process

This is the design process I took for the "main menu" screen from the low-fidelity wireframe to the final UI spec.

Final Design for Main Menu

Final Designs (for now!)

Taking the feedback from design critique, I created final designs and then presented them, while demonstrating and speaking to the steps that led to the proposed solution.
