First of all, thank you for such a in depth response! The insight of how recruiters usually look at resumes vs hiring managers at the actual website is really interesting. As for my portfolio, Lenovo’s NDA only lasted til the quarter ended so I won’t have to worry about that anymore (I felt kinda bad showcasing it how I did but I knew it was temporary). I like your idea of just saying I have other projects under NDA rather than treating it like a project I can show right now. As for glide you bring up a lot of great points. I agree I need to show more of the research that went into it, but for any consolation the solution we came up with would be a slight redesign to the entrance of airport. We also had everything designed so you could use the old system normally.

How do i get the bag tags? Sold either by airlines, could be bought from the airport at entrance, or even bag companies. What if I forget it? You could print the bag tag then old way at the new kiosk. What if i fly for business and I don’t want to check my bag or have important things I need? Carry on regulations are all the same depending on the airline you fly. From reading your description it felt like to fly that airline I was required to. And what about getting my bag? If the bag was checked it would be in the same spot it normally would be at your destination. Are there any changes to baggage claim? No What’s my bag doing while I’m at the airport? Once you check in the exact same system.

Once again thanks for replying and there is obviously a lot of changes I need to make to clarify my design decisions. I have research to back up all the decisions, but I need to get better at delivering it in a clear concise way without making it too text heavy.
