Hello
Welcome to Career Finder
We are Ana Norena and Sofi Graves, and we believe the career selection process for high-school and early college students should be inspiring, fun and stress free. We could not find internships for the summer of 2021 due to COVID, so we decided to create our own and tackle this problem.
Our Process: Unifying Innovation Method
To tackle this problem we decided to leverage the Unifying Innovation Method created at Notre Dame's Innovation Academy. In this page you will see some of the outputs of our process
TARGET
This is the phase in which we define the problem to solve and its scope. The outcome of this phase is the intent statement
DISCOVER
During this phase we look at the problem through different lenses so we understand it better and create empathy with our users
IDEATE
Leveraging all insights from the DISCOVER phase, we generate as many ideas as possible!
ELABORATE
We took all of our ideas and synthesized them into a few concepts we could test with our users
LAUNCH
We are not there yet, but this is when we create our product to save the world!
To tackle this problem, we learned and applied the Unifying Innovation Method taught at Notre Dame's Innovation Academy. This allowed us to frame our problem, generate new insights, create new ideas and develop them so we could get feedback from key stakeholders.
