A few details
Lot of people would like to work at GetYourGuide so it was crucial for them to have a user friendly and easy to use fast website to send their applications.
Some special
Before we started the project the team used a hard to edit career website. The request was to completely redesign the backend with keeping the current frontend and also add new features to it.
How we solved it
After we got familiar with the project and requirements we started to migrate the content to a new engine on a new server. It was important to keep the frontend untouched, but also to check how can make it more user friendly.
What the customers see
After we got familiar with the project and talked with their team we offered to implement new features on their site, like search the jobs by keywords, filling up the application forms with social channels like LinkedIn or Facebook, be able to refer the job for a friend etc.
Making the app managable
The task was to migrate the database and the content to a completely different engine. We also moved the code to a new server and set up the branching strategy. We implemented multiple APIs as well.
We checked how the current site works and what to keep, what to leave
Weekly standups between the project owner from GetYourGuide and our PM to make sure everything is on track.
Implementing new features, writing APIs. Coordinate between our team and GetYourGuide.
After we launched the new website it was a pleasure to hear that GetYourGuide is happy with their new website.
