How To Make Your Portfolio Stand Out
It’s easy to get started, but it’s definitely a different muscle to make your portfolio your own and highlight all your accomplishments with the right level of detail.
In general, we recommend the following:
- Highlight your core skills and the tools you know really well
- List project key results and impact in terms of cost and time savings
- Keep your Introduction tight. Start with everything. Prune to what you want them to remember
- Include a bit about your approach to problem solving from definition, ideation and brainstorming, testing and validation, and solution implementation
Remember, if you can’t mention the client’s name, use an anonymous pseudonym and keep it high-level.
