We had a chat with Ralf about the possibility of a collaboration with the CareerHub staff. Basically what Ralf said was the software used for the service was controlled externally so modifications won't be possible.
The CareerHub were also at an expense for the time they would be donating for the group so it would be favorable if they would get some sort of return from us for their time. So they propose time set aside for their staff to be accessible to us including a look into their system and "behind the scenes" work, in return our documentation be available for them to create a form of training manual for the careerhub services.
So the idea is we get to interview the staff ani ask questions on operations of the webservice and in the process of course document features and taking screenshots, which we will then form as a training manual. And in that process we will also critique the site and add suggestions based on a usability study we will be performing on user requirements and this part will be as part of our main assignment.
Then we will build a working prototype of the proposed features that demonstrates our concept.
Kill 2 birds with one stone... At least that's my interpretation of it ^^
