Portfolio and applications

Make your contribution and working process clear

Hiring teams need to distinguish your individual contribution from the work of a wider creative, marketing or production team.

What to include in a portfolio

Give each project enough context to be credible and easy to review.

  • Brief, audience and practical constraint
  • Your exact role and responsibilities
  • Process, alternatives and final decisions
  • Outcome, feedback or performance evidence

What to confirm before applying

The same title can describe very different workloads and expectations.

  • Main output and weekly production volume
