MatchLab

MatchLab is a platform designed to bridge the gap between education and industry for emerging designers. Whether self-taught, recently graduated, or exploring a career transition, MatchLab provides opportunities to shadow professionals across a variety of design disciplines, helping users gain firsthand insight into real-world roles and workflows. By connecting aspiring designers with experienced professionals, the platform creates accessible pathways for skill development, industry exposure, and meaningful networking opportunities that are often difficult to obtain early in a design career.

The platform combines shadowing experiences with personalized skill tracking to help users better understand their strengths, interests, and areas for growth. Through a dynamic dashboard, designers receive insights into where they excel, which skills may need further development, and recommended shadow opportunities aligned with their goals. Designed and prototyped in Figma, MatchLab focuses on creating an intuitive and engaging user experience that empowers designers to make informed career decisions, build confidence in their abilities, and establish valuable connections within the creative industry.
