CakeResume
The CEO/Founder of CakeResume invited me to design the UX and UI for their web app from its early stages. Over our four-year collaboration, I designed key sections of the website, including the homepage, onboarding, user dashboard, and more. Since its launch in May 2016, CakeResume has grown to manage nearly 500K talent profiles and 3K company profiles and recently raised $900,000 USD.
What did users say?
“Customizable resumes and intuitive user interface make CakeResume a favorable choice for employers.”
“CakeResume provides a clear and easy to use platform for both candidates and recruiters.”
“With CakeResume, the search is easy with a simple and intuitive interface.”
What did the CEO say?
“I have been working with Ivy productively since the very beginning of creating CakeResume on freelance. Most of the important sections of the CakeResume website were designed by Ivy, such as the homepage, onboarding process, user dashboard, pricing page, job/talent search page, company profile page, article view page, etc. These are all high traffic pages. With her strong design skills and many years of experience, she can quickly understand the problems to be solved and can successfully develop UI / UX solutions that help efficiently achieve the project goals. Today, CakeResume has grown to more than 500,000 users, and I must thank Ivy for her contribution towards this.”

Final Thoughts
Having previously worked as a designer at CakeResume, I am really happy and proud to see that CakeResume just raised $900,000 USD, even during this challenging Covid-19 days!
CakeResume started as a simple resume editor, and today there are many popular new functions such as job search and talent matching with more than 500,000 users. I am very happy to see that CakeResume can continue to improve. I am also very happy to see that my past designs bring value. I hope that one day in the future I can have the courage like Trantor Liu and become an even better designer.
Thank you for reading.
