Challenges

Initially, Sourav helped with the design aspect of the product at Zenskar. So, the entire team was building an MVP of their product today. They worked on the product's usability, user experience, and overall design. Yet, they needed a product designer to guide them in the correct direction.

Having identified the problem, Zenskar started looking for a product designer with significant experience. They interviewed around 500 profiles but needed help finding the right person. They also wanted to scale their existing product, but they needed the right people to do it.
