Tech Writing Portfolios - Design Your Portfolios to Be Hired

Design Your Portfolios to Be Hired

In technical communications, there are many ways to present information. As a budding technical writer, editor, or graphic designer, you are always interested in learning better ways to present your own projects.

In this discussion, we will look at the portfolios of the first 5 people to volunteer. In this presentation, the following will occur:

1. Lin will reveal her own portfolio and open it up to a discussion about the pros and cons.
2. She will also show you some of her favorites and explain why they are good. You'll get to give your own thoughts about them.
3. We will define some of the best takeaways from our discussion for you to learn to apply to your own portfolio pieces.
4. We will also discuss sites where you can find portfolio templates.

Note: If you register for this presentation but can't attend, you will receive a recording of the presentation.

Note: Currently, our events are free, but we encourage you to donate when you register. We do have costs for the tools we use, like Eventbrite and Zoom, and have been operating at a loss since Covid. We plan to start charging a small fee for events soon, but want to keep them free as long as possible. Please consider using the donation option when you register.

This event was originally offered in February but I had some medical issues so I am opening it up again. If it fills up, I will add a waiting list and send a recording to those who didn't get into the session.
There was also an earlier list of people who registered and they will also receive a recording of this event.
