My Rise Portfolio
Hi All,
I hope you are having a nice week.
I finished building my Rise portfolio here. It is my first portfolio and I am trying now to tone it and consider any update that may enhance it.
So, I would be grateful if you share with me your opinions about it and any also any suggestions you think it may make it better.
I also have one final concern, does a Rise portfolio like I just made, succeeds in attracting new clients?
Thank you
Hi Hazel,
Thank you and thanks for your suggestion.
Sure, I will post it now.
Have a nice day!
Nice work, Ahmed! I particularly liked your Venn diagram module, as I had not seen anything like that before. Question: How did you embed your interactive modules in Rise? When I embed mine (using AWS link URL), it does not show the module, just a text link.
Thanks Shirley!
That was one of the hardest activities I ever designed!
There is an option in Rise that allow you to add a Storyline module. Please, see the attached shots.
@Ahmed, you don't have to say, I'm just wondering how the job search has worked out in the days since?
I am not doing a great effort enough searching for new opportunities as I was busy in one long project in the last period of time since that. However, I did applied for some but unfortunately nothing worked :(
I am now totally free, and in the last three days I applied to several opportunities in Upwork, but nothing worked either!
Away from the job search result, as another eye and eLearning developer, do you think the content in my portfolio is enough to tell the employers that I am expert in eLearning course development?
Hi Ahmed,
How many years have you been doing eLearning course development?
I want to say HANG IN THERE! - it's positive, but not that helpful.
Plus, my entire Department was eliminated in November, but even if you don't count the end of the year (no one with budgets hiring). I'm creeping up on month 6. Worse, I can confirm the "you get more interviews when you already have a job, than when you don't." - by like, a lot.
So it's not just you.
And, because I have LinkedIn Premium, I can see the "# of Applicants" on a job's page and a ID with a bachelor's degree + 3-5yrs experience can easily hit 500 applicants in a week. There ARE a lot of jobs, so one trick is to get your resume's keywords right so you can "spray and prey".
I've resolved to finally do a proper portfolio webiste and have reached out for (recent) help: https://community.articulate.com/discussions/building-better-courses/your-portfolio-in-2023 because "google" ( pref: duckduckgo.com ) is awash in undated "help".
However, THIS has "career tips" as a keyword, so if you want more recent articles/blog posts you can go to : https://community.articulate.com/search?tags%5B%5D=Career+Tips&search_sort=desc and change the Sort dropdown to "Newest to Oldest"
GOOD LUCK!
Hey Ahmed! I really enjoyed reading about your insights and accomplishments in creating the portfolio using Rise 360. way, I was wondering how you published your portfolio. Did you use Review 360 or web hosting?
Hello Mohamadhu! I believe, based on the course URL, Ahmed used the Share link in this post for his portfolio.
If you are looking to publish a similar one, you can host it in Review 360 or publish it to the web and upload it to your web server. I hope this helps!
