Today we will be creating a portfolio cover page. As I have said, you probably won't be leaving your portfolio with prospective employers [if you do, keep a backup of everything] but a cover page will keep your portfolio looking professional.
Requirements for the cover page:
- NAME (all caps)
- EMPLOYMENT PORTFOLIO (all caps)
- e-mail address (something appropriate... not underlined)
- Date (i.e. February 26th, 2010) -- You can update this as you update your portfolio
- Font and size may vary depending on your own personal style
I will be returning your résumé to you today. Make needed corrections and put your updated copy in your portfolio.
Also, make sure you are uploading all of your documents (résumé, cover letters, etc.) to Google Documents and/or emailing them to yourself. This makes it a LOT more convenient in the future when you need to apply for a position.
Finally, use extra time to complete any missing assignments (i.e. the 5 letters we did this week) and pick up any graded assignments from the basket on the counter.
