How to Review a Portfolio
Bryony Gomez-Palacio
About this video
Description
Students and young professionals worry about putting together a portfolio. What is the best format, what to include, how to approach a firm with which to share it… Basically, it is a big deal. And those of us in a position to review those portfolios have a big responsibility to provide them with honesty, guidance, and quite possibly a job. The big question is what do we review? Why can't I just look at the work online? What kind of feedback can I provide? Especially if I am not offering them a job? In this webinar we will cover the basics of a portfolio review, starting from the beginning (why are we here?) to leading them out the door, leaving some room at the end to cover your unique questions.
