   Tips on Creating Your Portfolios
1. Know the purpose of the portfolio.

   what you want to project, or the
   position you are applying for.
3. Include projects you have worked on
   in your current job or within the last
   two years for currency.
4. Show your individuality.
5. Have and maintain both a paper and
   electronic portfolio.
6. Keep it clean.
