Instrument hires the best people with strong skill sets, but they are not leveraging the efficiently enough to help others growth and accomplish their expansion plans.

Solution

Meetup

Meetup brings people together in thousandas of cities to do more of what they want to do in life. It brings people together to do, explore, teach and learn.

Workplace

To help people in businesses connect and discover new ways of working. Groups are shared spaces for people to work together in teams, discuss common interests and share ideas. And groups are for working with anyone, even people at other companies. Conversation moves quickly, a message on Work Chat, often gets you the answer you need or keeps the whole team in the loop.

Messenger

The Messenger web app interface shows the importance of providing a platform for employees to communicate and discuss what interested them based on their joined interest groups. So, I create "group chat" as a similar use case for employees better-communication.

Icon

I was trying to create a set of the icon based on Instrument design trend, the clean, linear and easy to read icons. It designed to help users to read quickly with the tiny things so that they can figure out what for next step easier.
