About this Project
EmPow was created to empower the youth in finding their confidence to start building their careers through learning about financial literacy and finding opportunities. We came up with this idea by wanting to do something unique, in our lives this is talked about a lot between students but nothing ever done to combat this issue.
Before we started any sort of designing, we decided to get some more information on our topic through studying our competitors, surveying other students to know what is more important to include and to see the general knowledge of our audience. Once we had the information we needed we started designing, starting from a paper prototype, wireframe, and then making an app with three sections, finding opportunities, understanding finance and lastly finding employees for businesses to use.
The app starts off on a login page where the user can input their information and is given the choice to find work, learn finance, or if you’re a business owner, find employees.
