A portfolio is a compilation of work samples and professional documentation that provides proof of your accomplishments or samples of your work. It can be a physical book or binder that organizes samples of your work, or an online portfolio with electronic files.
Portfolios are a great way to demonstrate the competencies you would list on a resume or talk about in an interview — they allow you to show and not just tell. During a job search, the portfolio showcases your work to potential employers. It presents evidence of your relevant skills and abilities. Portfolios are also helpful for independent contractors, consultants, or business owners who need to provide work samples to potential clients.
Outside of a job or client search, archiving samples of your work to a portfolio is a great way to keep track of your accomplishments and make note of when you acquired key competencies. Having it all together in a portfolio can be useful during your yearly review or helpful if you decide to go for a promotion. It can take quite a while to put together a portfolio, so make sure it’s up-to-date to prepare you for unexpected situations like layoffs and sudden changes to your job.
As we all know with the passage of time we enhance our skills, we add more achievements, we accomplish many projects but when it comes to showing it on one page resume, it becomes tougher. In order to put our best projects achievements sometimes we do compromise and leave very important details. In order to overcome that issue we can put one line i.e link of portfolio on resume and reviewer will get a chance to understand you in a better way. Reviewer is just one click away to know your achievements, accomplishments. As this is dynamic in nature so you can add delete update details of your achievements, projects, company details, skills. You completed one project add to your portfolio, got a new job add to your company list, achieved something add to your achievement list, all will be displayed on your portfolio. You don't need to code anything anymore. Isn't it cool?
