A six-week Pinterest externship studying how Gen Z uses the platform, producing a JTBD survey, analysis of responses from at least 30 Gen Z users, and an evidence-backed insight packaged for advertiser-facing pitches.
This externship ran a Jobs-to-be-Done survey of Gen Z Pinterest users and analyzed the responses from a sample of at least 30 respondents. The work included designing the survey, collecting responses, synthesizing patterns in usage, and packaging one evidence-backed insight into an advertiser-facing pitch.
I produced a live Google Form JTBD survey and documented a working ManyChat chatbot setup used to recruit Gen Z Pinterest respondents.
Situation: the project sought to map how Gen Z used Pinterest. Task: design a survey that captured actual behaviors. Action: wrote, refined, and compared original and AI-suggested questions, then assembled the final Google Form. Result: produced a completed live Google Form survey.
The project required recruiting Gen Z Pinterest users. I built and tested a ManyChat chatbot, configured trigger words and survey links, and documented the setup in a shared Google Doc. The deliverable was the chatbot setup documentation.
I collected nine survey responses, coded open answers for themes, ran descriptive counts, and visualized category comparisons. I found 77.8% used Pinterest for fashion and evidence that users often planned outfits, explored styles, and sometimes purchased based on pins.
