Professional Portfolios
"The Game Changer"
What is a professional portfolio?
Let’s start with what it is not. It’s not a résumé or curriculum vitae (CV). Think of it this way: a résumé or CV is a summary of your skills, achievements, and professional experience.
A professional portfolio is the evidence of your skills, achievements, and professional experience. It is a tool judiciously and carefully crafted to appropriately showcase the work of a professional while providing evidence of career growth.
How do I use my portfolio?
A professional portfolio is often used to market yourself or your business. When applying for a career-ladder promotion, a new position, admission to an education program, or when seeking the business of a new potential client, this is the perfect tool to separate you from the pack.
At networking events, and especially once you've received an opportunity to interview with a prospective employee, presenting a well-crafted, professionally written and creatively designed professional portfolio can be the difference between getting a job offer, or not. HR managers, as well as interested customers, are impressed by candidates who make the effort to impress them with a professional presentation, including a portfolio, tastefully highlighting their qualifications for a position .
Bell Consulting Services will assign you a dedicated writer/account manager to walk you through the process of gathering the necessary information to include in your portfolio presentation.
