| Activity 2 - Creating a portfolio |
||
| A portfolio is your evidence of suitability
for the position. Create a portfolio to display relevant materials in sections. Place in
your portfolio your curriculum vitae (resume), certificates, samples of work you created
during your training, relevant to the position, and references or letters of
recommendation. This portfolio of your work can be presented at an interview to show the employer what you have achieved. The folio should include any evidence that backs up what you mentioned in the curriculum vitae regarding skills, qualities and abilities. To create this show-and-tell folder you will need a display folder with plastic pockets and printouts of quality documents and work created by you. You can create divider sheets to label and separate each section. Include any work which you have produced and are proud of (only of it is relevant). You can include good quality photos which show your work to best advantage. Check and double check for typos or any other errors. The layout and display you use for the folio is a good way to show what you are capable of creating using the computer. As always - proof read and proof read again. Keep multiple copies of your curriculum vitae and other documents you may need to give to the interviewer within this folder - then give copies to your prospective employer if required - always retain your originals.
