eBay regularly has "focal reviews" where your
colleagues (project team members, managers, company stakeholders,
etc) are given the opportunity to anonymously report on their
experiences working with you. Below I've included some of
their kind words from the past couple of years to give you
a sense for what it's like to work with me.
"Corey is a natural leader who is inspiring as
well as contributing. As the leader in designing the finding
experience, he is very engaged in his work. He is willing
to take time and explain concepts and clarify issues. He
displayed strong desire to seek for the truth and was not
afraid to ask questions to gain better understanding of
the findings research" "Corey's leadership is apparent on his contributions
to various high-profile big projects...He uses his wealth
of knowledge to shape the directions with keeping users
in mind throughout the process." "In helping the team take a direction, Corey looked
at all the options but in the end made a recommendation
that might not be the 'conventional' choice but made more
sense for the users and was scaleable for the future." "He always balanced the needs of the client (Business)
with the user (design & development team) which is
a tough job to do successfully. As an example, he had many
occasions where he had to decide on trade-offs in the design
due to limitations of the budget/ framework and I think
he did a good job in delivering the best design within
the scope." "I would trust him to work towards the interest
of the end user, project and the company in providing the
best user experience." "He is extremely intelligent and therefore is a
good sparing partner for meaningful conversations about
work or just life in general." "Corey is a joy to work with, he always makes everyone
feel like they are part of the team. His working style
and his personality helps to create a motivating environment
to work in." "He was great at looking at the big picture and
relaying how that works into detailed user flows. He was
also very passionate about his work and thoughts." "Corey adapts quickly to shifts in circumstances
(large or small) and his judgment is unhindered by setbacks
or challenges." "Corey made sure that every team member (PM, Prototyping,
UER) was wholly involved and always, from the very beginning
of the project." "Corey is one of my favorite people at eBay. He's
extremely smart and it shows in the way he articulates
himself." "In general, Corey is an excellent partner to brainstorm
and bounce back ideas. I know I can always depend on him
for sanity check, great ideas, and intelligent conversations." "I have a huge respect for him as an Interaction Designer and a great person." |
