If you were wondering what exactly human-centered design is, we’ve got answers with some real-world examples for you.
Human-centered design comes under the design thinking methodology, where products and apps are built by focusing on the perspective of those who experience the problem.
This helps achieve the sweet spot of desirability, accessibility and usability while addressing the core needs of the people. If you look at successful innovations, you must have noticed some element of human-centered design in them.
Here are some of the innovations that were designed using the human-centered approach.

Psycholinguistics : The Future of Behavioral Competency MatchingTalview
Most traditional assessments rely on direct inference based or scenario (many times not relevant to the person’s experience or background) based items with answers in multiple choice format. It is well known many such instruments have an inbuilt risk of candidates pretending socially desirable responses thereby making the report unreliable.
Talent Management has gained importance over the years and as long as we need a smooth and uninterrupted flow of business; it is going to be an indispensable part of any HR strategy. Following definition clearly outlines what is Talent Management:
“Talent management is an integrated set of processes, programs, and cultural norms in an organization designed and implemented to attract, develop, deploy, and retain talent to achieve strategic objectives and meet future business needs.”

THE INTERVIEW
Many of us have or will sit in a waiting room with our best clothes on awaiting a job (or school) interview. You can
feel your palms sweat and thoughts race as you wait for your name to be called. You look around at the office en-
vironment and imagine yourself walking through those doors everyday. People walk by and smile, and overall, you
have a really good first impression of the organization. You hope they like you. You tell yourself to remember to
smile, while recalling all your experience that makes you the perfect person for this job. A moment of self-doubt
may occur, as you wonder about the abilities of the other people being interviewed and hope you have more ex-
perience and make a better impression than they do. You hear your name, stand up, and give a firm handshake to
the HR manager. The interview has begun.
As she walks you back to a conference room, you think you see encouraging smiles as you pass by people. She
asks you to take a chair and then tells you what the interview process will be like. She then asks the first question,
“Tell me about yourself.” As you start discussing your experience, you feel yourself relax, just a little bit. After the in-
terview finishes, she asks you to take a quick cognitive test, which you feel good about. She tells you she will be do-
ing reference checks and will let you know by early next week.
To get to this point, the hiring manager may have reviewed hundreds of résumés and developed criteria she
would use for selection of the right person for the job. She has probably planned a time line for hiring, developed
hiring criteria, determined a compensation package for the job, and enlisted help of other managers to interview
candidates. She may have even performed a number of phone interviews before bringing only a few of the best
candidates in for interviews. It is likely she has certain qualities in mind that she is hoping you or another candidate
will possess. Much work goes into the process of hiring someone, with selection being an important step in that
process. A hiring process done correctly is time-consuming and precise. The interviewer should already have ques-
tions determined and should be ready to sell the organization to the candidate as well. This chapter will discuss the
main components to the selection process.

When it comes to my place of employment, I believe there are a few status quos that could be changed/improved, from the day to day tasks I deal with to little things that could be done differently. With having this in mind, I have come up with the following:
Ten Questions That Challenge the status Quo at Your Current Workplace

- How can we work on better managing time?
- Why do we make it difficult for employees to move up in this work field?
- How can we increase profit within each department?
