Production Technology

In the initial phase, Photoshop and Illustrator were used to create concept sketches and demo designs. During the development of the main visual, Photoshop and Illustrator were employed for texture design, while Cinema 4D was utilized to construct 3D elements and scenes. For the animated version of the main visual, Cinema 4D was used for motion creation, followed by After Effects for editing and visual effects enhancement, ensuring a seamless and dynamic presentation.

Design Challenge

Challenge 1: We needed a fresh approach for the main visual that reflects Tencent’s professional employer brand and resonates with a youthful narrative aligned with the slogan 'Join Tencent to impact the world.'

Challenge 2: The main visual had to extend across eight Tencent business groups and two departments within a tight timeline, requiring adaptability. We preserved the scene and composition, using color, graphic elements, and copy to ensure versatility, aligning with the different departments' brand colors and abstractly expressing their business content with enhanced 3D textured titles.

Challenge 3: We used a two-part animation for an engaging interactive experience, addressing challenges with GIF compression and SVG logic. The ripple effect captures attention while loading resources, and perspective shifts create surprise, immersing users quickly in dynamic content.

Research

We collected recruitment visual designs from 10 renowned internet companies from 2018 to 2020 to analyze their design strategies, considering current employer brand trends. We found that while company strength and fit are primary considerations for job seekers, the attractiveness of recruitment content significantly influences their choices. Good recruitment materials can affect candidates' perceptions of a company's image, including brand strength and recruitment focus.

Our insights show that young job seekers, including surveyed university students and recent graduates, pay attention to the visual design of recruitment materials, preferring innovative dynamic and 3D visuals. After discussions with the client, we decided on a design style focusing on 3D visuals and interactive dynamic design, reaching out to over 100,000 users.

Inspiration

This design is inspired by Tencent's recruitment slogan, "Join Tencent. impact the world." The figure represents "you", while the central sphere symbolizes 'the world.' The ripples signify the expanding influence and broadened horizons of individuals in the digital age, illustrating how one’s impact can extend globally with Tencent’s support. This proposal combines futuristic aesthetics, gamification elements, and dynamic design to create a highly engaging and memorable brand experience.

Project Duration

The project started in March 2021 and was completed in June 2021. It was implemented in China as part of Tencent's global hiring initiatives.

Operation Flow

This design attracts job seekers with engaging dynamic visuals and an intuitive layout, ensuring a smooth user experience through technical support.
