How to create a winning portfolio. [Blurb]( The Definitive Handbook on Creative Portfolios Whether you’re looking to land your dream job or a freelance gig, creatives need a powerful portfolio. How do you make one that stands out? We’ll show you with the help of research and industry pros. [Get the handbook]( [Blurb]( Go for unforgettable To create a portfolio that can’t be ignored, you need to know what your audience is looking for. Here are five of the handbook’s top takeaways. 83% of employers want you to show (rather than tell) your skills. Many report they rely on portfolios over resumes, especially for recent graduates. (A 4.0 graphic design student may be better at completing class projects than thinking outside the box.) [Blurb] Portfolios show how well you can sell yourself. They’re more than pictures of your project samples—they're your chance to build a narrative about your work and your own identity as a creator. [Blurb] Your portfolio offers tangible evidence of your proudest projects. It should be highly curated and tailored for the job you're going after—while remaining true to your personal brand. You can also include unproduced, aspirational work. [Blurb] Digital? Print? Maybe both. "It really depends upon your medium and industry," says J. Nordberg, Blurb's senior director of brand and creative. "But a good rule is to make the portfolio in the medium you work in—or want to work in." [Blurb] Different jobs require different portfolios. We’ve got pointers for you in a range of fields (from photography, to graphic design, to writing) and specific positions (from UI/UX designer, to artist, to architect).
