Problem Sattement
TaskRabbit, a leading platform in the gig freelancing industry, faces significant issues with its current system for evaluating freelancers. The existing rating and review process is often inconsistent, biased, and lacks clarity, making it difficult for clients to make informed decisions and for freelancers to showcase their growth. This project aims to address these problems by redesigning the rating and review system to be more transparent, objective, and constructive. The goal is to create a more reliable evaluation process that empowers freelancers to demonstrate their improvement over time and provides clients with clearer, more accurate information to guide their decisions.
My role
I collaborated in the secondary research, ideation, design process (including wireframing, high-fidelity design, and prototyping), and user testing.

Problem overview
TaskRabbite lists taskers by price, rating, and completed tasks.
Many taskers are similar, making selection time-consuming.
Customers prioritize different qualities, such as:
Cleanliness
Speed
Communication and politeness
etc
Design Solution:
The new design introduces categorized features for taskers, based on the most frequently selected qualities from previous customer ratings.

Problem overview
While TaskRabbite allows taskers to find customers, images alone may not fully showcase their skills.
Some comments only show ratings, with no context linking them to the images or the specific service. This can lead to misinterpretation, especially when a tasker performs well but receives a lower rating due to high customer expectations.
Design Solution:
The new design introduces videos alongside photos to better demonstrate a tasker's abilities.
Each image and video is now linked to a specific comment and rating (if applicable).

Problem overview
The 5-star rating system lacks sufficient detail, with many users leaving comment sections empty, especially for lower ratings, leading to confusion.
Some customers give low ratings due to personal problems with the tasker.
Design Solution:
The new rating system requires raters to select qualities based on their given star (positive qualities for 5 stars, negative and positive for 4-0 stars), ensuring a qualitative comment.
Low ratings require approval of a video uploaded by the tasker from the service process for further verification, preventing unsubstantiated bad ratings.
