Tips on putting together a portfolio

Apr 05, 2016

Hi!

I am looking to start putting together a portfolio of my work but am worried about the privacy of my company's content - I don't want to give away company secrets.  Does anyone have any suggestions for ways to post work without breaching any confidentiality clauses? 

Thank you.

Hi Stephanie,

Sanitize, sanitize, sanitize. Remove text and replace with "dummy text." Replace images with your own. Remove the logo and any reference to the company. Change the color scheme. Think of filling the slides you created for your employer as a slide with a bunch of empty boxes on it. Then fill-it up. Good luck!

Cheers,

Julie

Hi Michelle! Here's an older thread with a similar question. Even though this is from a few years back, I'd say the comments below are still relevant. 

Also, I want to share this article which has some helpful tips on what to include in your portfolio. I hope that helps you with crafting your portfolio!
