As an experienced eLearning Instructional Designer, this job post definitely piques my interest. It aligns well with my skillset and passion for creating engaging, educational content. Even though I haven’t worked extensively with the THINKIFIC platform, I am confident in my ability to quickly adapt and utilize its tools effectively given my experience with similar platforms like Articulate Storyline 360, Rise, and Adobe Captivate.

3. Update my portfolio: I will include examples of e-courses I’ve designed, particularly those that demonstrate my ability to enhance visual appeal, create engaging content, and improve user experience.
4. Prepare a draft proposal: I will outline how I plan to enhance their e-course, based on my review of their current material and my understanding of the THINKIFIC platform.
