Building and Presenting Your Portfolio as a Freelancer

Your portfolio often gets you the interview and the job. There’s a lot out there about fixing your resume or how to talk to recruiters, but it’s harder to find information about what kind of samples you should be showcasing.

Some of the people at Steyer who dedicate their days to reviewing freelancers’ samples spent 90 minutes sharing about the portfolios they love and what scares them off.

In this recorded session, you’ll hear:

What makes for a compelling portfolio? How to build up your library of samples when you’re starting in a new area

How should you be maintaining and presenting your samples? The best format and how to tell the story of “you” in a job search

What are recruiters looking at when they review your portfolio? What gets them excited and things to avoid
