Assignment brief

Scenario

You are applying for a job with an IT company. As part of the application process, the company wants to see examples of the products you have made and the projects you have completed.

Design a digital portfolio to go alongside your application, which includes at least two products or projects you have worked on. The content of your portfolio should show a range of your IT skills and experience, and be related to the work of the IT company you are applying to.

Task 1 (outcome P1)

This portfolio is an important part of your application. You, therefore, want the opinion of a trusted colleague or even professional careers advisor on its suitability.

Write an e-mail to the person who is going to proof-read your portfolio to explain who you are creating the portfolio for and your reasons for doing so.

Task 2 (OutcomeP2)

This is the first part of your planning. Create an initial design.

Create individual storyboards that map-out the homepage of the portfolio; these should include the layout and content.
