Kill Your Web Dev Portfolio ☠️
In this video, I share why I don’t have a web development portfolio and how I’m able to get gigs despite that. We’re hard wired to want to build things, and the desire to spend hours and hours crafting a portfolio plays right into that. Resist the urge, and take the advice in this video instead.
This is primarily from the perspective of a freelance web developer, but there’s some truth here if you’re looking for a full-time gig as well. Sure, the company is probably going to want to see a portfolio, but it’s not nearly as important as other means of building trust.
