Portfolios are very helpful if you want to demonstrate your work in order to gain more points to get selected. Unlike a CV, it will show your actual work to the employers. Candidates that are smart enough, always bring their portfolios with them, should the need arises. It’s an evidence of your skills and talent.
Assembling a portfolio might not be an easy task, but for all the professionals, having a portfolio increases their chances of getting the job they have been eyeing. Graduatewise helps candidates upload their portfolios in a very easy manner, and also streamlines their complete profile. Let’s take a look how important are they to progress your career in the best ways possible.
Display your accomplishments
Portfolios helps in showcasing your accomplishments and achievements throughout your career/college/university. While a traditional CV only tells about you, a portfolio shows what you have actually done.
Display your skills
Portfolios help you tell the employers about what you are skilled at. Any projects that you have worked upon and what all tools and techniques you used, what all you learnt from working on it, any innovations that you used, all this can be exhibited in the portfolio.
Defines your strengths
A portfolio is used to show what you are good at, that makes those skills your strength, which makes you a potential candidate for the job position. Hence, its importance to mention all the essential points about your career that highlight your fortes.
Shows your passions
A portfolio can also be utilized to express your passions. Any projects that you might have done, using particular skills, tells a lot about what you are passionate about. Any experiences you had should also be mentioned in the portfolio so the employers can get a better glimpse of your overall work done.
While you mention all these points on your portfolio, it’s also essential that you keep updating it, as you achieve more milestones in your career. It reflects your personality, which is a key component to tell the employers of your capabilities and interests.
As visual it is, it gives an insight into your whole career to not just your employer, but to yourself too. When at a later stage you decide to take a look back at your professional achievements, this documentation helps a lot.
