CIRCLE DESCRIPTION
Does your portfolio need a tune-up? Are you missing some pieces that could put you over the top for your next job opportunity? Would an accountability group with some instruction be helpful? Then this circle is for you!
In this circle, mentees will find support for creating or building an effective and dynamic portfolio website. We will review your existing website, come up with suggestions for what additional pieces could be included or how current pieces could be updated, and develop a plan for execution.
Mentees should expect to work on their portfolios in their own time, but circle meetings will also include time to work on pieces.
In addition to portfolio review and work, the circle will also discuss best practices for networking, job hunting, and presenting yourself at interviews and meetings.
