A college colleague reached out to me on LinkedIn recently, asking if I knew of anyone who would be interested in a Product Designer role at his startup. I was quite happy in my role, but having toyed with the idea of pursuing product design, I asked my colleague to send me the exercise prompt they were using to evaluate candidates.
The Prompt
Each user sees this screen ~2-3 times / week. We would like to redesign this page with the following goals:
- Marketing should be able to add relevant content on the page to promote new features and customer webinars
- There should be stronger LogRocket branding on this page
- Users should still be able to log in / signup as they can today
Please propose a new visual for this page based on the above goals. Strive for the design to be as close to “pixel perfect” as possible.
My Design
I used color scheme, font, and copy from the main LogRocket website to keep the brand cohesive and consistent. In addition to the stated objectives, I wanted to make a few minor tweaks to the page. I emphasized the differences between the log in and sign up panels, so that users who see the page often can quickly identify that they’re in the right place. I added a password confirmation field for that reason, as well. Otherwise, the log in functionality has been kept the same as the original page.
