As Norway\u2019s leading digital legal platform, Rettsdata serves thousands of legal professionals with access to over <span class=\"formatted-number\">123000<\/span> legal commentaries, 400 professional books, and 900 document templates \u2013 all continuously updated in collaboration with more than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rettsdata.no\/om-rettsdata\" rel=\"nofollow noreffer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">300 legal experts<\/a> from academia, law firms, and government institutions. <\/p>\n<p>The company needed experienced Designers who could blend functional design with a deep understanding of usability in highly specialized B2B tools, ensuring that complex legal information remains both visually coherent and intuitively accessible.<\/p>\n\n        <span class=\"img-container\">\n            <picture class=\"open-picture\" style=\"filter: grayscale(0)\">\n                <source media=\"(max-width: 500px)\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Gyldendal-icons_small.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\">\n                <source media=\"(max-width: 500px)\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Gyldendal-icons_small.jpg\" type=\"image\/jpg\">\n                <source srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Gyldendal-icons.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\">\n                <source srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Gyldendal-icons.jpg\" type=\"image\/jpg\">\n                <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Gyldendal-icons.webp\" width=\"640\" height=\"357\" alt=\"Gyldendal Rettsdata AS general statistics image\" title=\"\">\n            <\/picture>\n        <\/span>\n    \n<\/section>\n<section>\n<h2>Client profile<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/gyldendal-rettsdata\/\" rel=\"nofollow noreffer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Gyldendal Rettsdata AS<\/a>, part of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gyldendal.no\/\" rel=\"nofollow noreffer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Gyldendal Norsk Forlag<\/a>, is a leading Norwegian provider of digital legal research and reference tools. Headquartered in Oslo with around 50 employees, Rettsdata\u2019s core platform consolidates legislation, case law, commentaries, templates, and academic publications into a single, intuitive ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>In recent years, the company has invested heavily in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rettsdata.no\/nyheter\/rettskilder-fra-rettsdata-er-na-tilgjengelige-via-api-i-ledende-ki-verktoy\" rel=\"nofollow noreffer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">AI and API integrations<\/a>, expanding its digital infrastructure and transforming how users interact with legal data. These changes increased both the complexity and volume of on-screen information, making specialized design hiring essential to ensure that the platform remained intuitive, visually consistent, and accessible to thousands of professionals who rely on it daily.<\/p>\n<h2>Project overview<\/h2>\n<p>The goal was to build a small design team capable of driving product modernization and improved user experience across Rettsdata\u2019s digital ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>Key objectives included:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style: initial;\">\n<li>Recruiting a Graphic Design Lead with experience in digital publishing and platform design.<\/li>\n<li>Hiring two Senior Designers with strong backgrounds in UI\/UX and data visualization for complex content platforms.<\/li>\n<li>Ensuring cultural and communication alignment with the Oslo-based product and engineering teams.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The timeline for the recruitment process was set to eight weeks, covering sourcing, assessment, shortlisting, and onboarding coordination.<\/p>\n<h2>Challenges<\/h2>\n<p>Recruiting Senior Design Professionals in Norway posed distinct challenges. The market, while rich in creative talent, remains relatively small for graphic design recruitment in experienced digital product roles. Many of the country\u2019s top professionals work independently or within agencies, making it difficult to attract candidates seeking long-term, in-house opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>The expectations for the roles were equally demanding. Rettsdata needed individuals who could move seamlessly between visual creativity and technical collaboration \u2013 Designers who could understand the logic behind complex legal data and translate it into intuitive digital experiences. This balance of artistry and structure proved to be one of the most defining aspects of the search.<\/p>\n<p>Balancing creative expression with technical precision wasn\u2019t the only challenge. Rettsdata also wanted to preserve the essence of Scandinavian design \u2013 a philosophy defined by clarity, minimalism, and functionality. That meant crafting interfaces that felt clean and intuitive, avoided visual clutter, and made even complex legal information easy to navigate. The new hires had to embody these principles while still introducing fresh, forward-looking ideas to modernize the platform\u2019s look and feel.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the recruitment process was conducted under a high level of confidentiality. Rettsdata was in the middle of reorganizing its creative department, which meant the search couldn\u2019t rely on public job postings. Instead, DevsData LLC\u2019s recruiters conducted discreet headhunting and referral-based outreach, ensuring the process remained fully private while still attracting the right level of senior talent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"quote\"><i>\u201cThe Norwegian market has a distinct rhythm \u2013 candidates value trust, clarity, and long-term vision over quick offers. Our goal was to approach them with a genuine understanding rather than volume outreach. That\u2019s what helped us connect with the right Designers for Rettsdata.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n<h2>Our approach<\/h2>\n<p>DevsData LLC implemented a structured, multi-stage recruitment funnel designed for precision and transparency.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"padding-left: 0px; list-style: none;\">\n<li>\n<h3>1. Discovery and calibration<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>DevsData LLC began with a deep-dive session with Rettsdata\u2019s leadership and product managers to define the competencies and cultural attributes needed. This stage clarified the balance between UI expertise, brand design skills, and experience in B2B or editorial environments.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"padding-left: 0px; list-style: none;\">\n<li>\n<h3>2. Targeted search<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Our team mapped over 120 Designers in Norway and nearby regions (Sweden, Denmark, the Baltics), focusing on candidates with strong portfolios in product design, data visualization, or digital publishing. Outreach emphasized the mission-driven nature of Rettsdata\u2019s platform \u2013 connecting design to the accessibility of law and knowledge.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"padding-left: 0px; list-style: none;\">\n<li>\n<h3>3. Screening and portfolio review<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Roughly 40 candidates entered the initial funnel. Each underwent a structured 90-minute interview covering:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style: initial;\">\n<li>Portfolio walkthroughs emphasizing clarity, usability, and typography discipline.<\/li>\n<li>Scenario-based questions on collaborating with developers and product teams.<\/li>\n<li>Live design critique sessions to evaluate creative reasoning and adaptability.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ol style=\"padding-left: 0px; list-style: none;\">\n<li>\n<h3>4. Technical and cultural vetting<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The top eight candidates advanced to client interviews. At this stage, our recruiters coordinated practical design exercises and facilitated feedback loops between candidates and Rettsdata\u2019s stakeholders. To assess cultural alignment, particularly with Norwegian workplace norms that value autonomy, openness, and precision, candidates participated in scenario-based discussions reflecting real team interactions, such as collaborative feedback sessions and self-directed project planning. Their ability to communicate transparently, take initiative, and handle critique constructively became decisive factors in the final selection.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"padding-left: 0px; list-style: none;\">\n<li>\n<h3>5. Final selection and offer coordination<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Three candidates, a Graphic Design Lead and two Senior Designers, were selected and hired.
