Global Design Director, Jo Malone London ⋅ Career Coach & Mentor for Designers ⋅ 20+ yrs experience in Design, E-commerce, Luxury.
When reviewing designers for a role, a clear CV (without infographics), and a concise portfolio of your best, and most relevant design work is ideal. When interviewing designers for a role, I like to be taken through original artwork files, to see the 'workings'. Too often i've hired primarily based on a portfolio. What a plonker.

Unless you're a graphic designer, don't graphically design it. Your resume CONTENT is important not the design!! Agree? Resumes are more about selling your strengths and capabilities, less about appearances. We’re often trained to associate something “good looking” with value, but the true quality comes from what you relay about yourself. Thoughts??

Why Portfolios for Designers, But Resumes for Others? It's true! Designers often need portfolios while other roles stick to resumes. But why the different approaches? Let's dive in: Design is Visual: A designer's skills are best showcased through tangible work. A portfolio allows them to visually demonstrate their design thinking, process, and execution. A resume, with its text-based format, can't do justice to the creative output. Results Matter: Design is judged on outcomes. Portfolios present finished projects, user flows, and case studies, allowing hiring managers to evaluate the final product and its impact. Resumes focus on past job descriptions and skills, leaving the impact to imagination. Uniqueness Speaks: Every designer has their own style and approach. A portfolio allows them to curate work that reflects their individuality, differentiating themselves from other applicants. Resumes tend to be more standardized, making it harder to stand out. However, the line isn't always clear-cut: Creative roles like photographers or writers: May benefit from showcasing samples in their portfolio alongside a resume. Data-driven roles: Might present data visualizations or project reports as portfolio pieces. Ultimately, the goal is to effectively communicate your skills and experience. If your work can be demonstrably showcased, consider a portfolio! **What are your thoughts? Should other roles consider using portfolios too? ** #designers #portfolios #resumes #creativity #skills #careers #hiring

Customer Success job seekers use my free resources, 1-1 coaching and podcast to land their dream jobs 🔥🚀 Host of The Customer Success Career Coach Podcast 🎙️
I look at ~300 resumés every week. I'm not exaggerating. It's a lot 😂 here's a list of the most common resumé mistakes I see in no particular order: ⛔️ Formatting.. please ditch: - anything fancy (this is not America's Next Top Graphic Designer!) - graphics, images, emojis, pictures, etc. - multiple colors and font changes ⛔️ Readability.. please ditch: - PARAGRAPHS under your work experiences. we want bullet points! - fluffy words such as meaningful, effective and impactful. (I guarantee a recruiter has never said "We must call him for an interview.. did you see that he has meaningful relationships? Everyone else who applied only has plain relationships!") ⛔️ Prioritization... please ditch: - Generalized "skills" bullet sections at the top of your resumé. Think of your resumé as a game. Your goal is to get a recruiter to read to the end. So, the goal of every line is to get them to read the very next line. A general list of skills in bullet points does not make me want to keep reading. In fact, it just makes me think "what this is person trying to overcompensate for that I'm not going to find under their experience bullet points?". Keep it at the end of your resumé if you really can't part ways with it. I share this because I keep seeing the same mistakes over and over AND it makes me sad because I know these things can hold you back from getting interviews.. K, that's it for now! Hope this helps! __ #customersuccess #jobsearchadvice

Founder & CEO at The Sketch Effect 🖍 | Author of "The Conquering Creative" 📘 | Keynote Speaker 🎤 | Workshop Leader ✏️
"How do you find and hire your people?" This is one of the most common questions I get asked. Recruiting talent is already one of the toughest jobs for an business owner. ...but recruiting Graphic Recorders?? That's a whole 'nother thing. First, we look for the basics --> confident drawing skills✏️, ability to think and synthesize ideas🧠, ability and willingness to travel to cool places for gigs✈️. Then, we look for the extra magic --> great people skills😁, a squishy cultural connection❤️, embedded values of integrity & positivity🙌. And where we find them? Well...lots of places. 📍 We have successful Graphic Recorders who come out of the comics world, the UX world, the industrial engineering world. 📍 We have some with backgrounds in street art, fine art, or no art at all. 📍 We have storyboarders and surf(boarders) 📍 In fact, one of our Graphic Recorders, the amazing Kent Carollo, even had brief stint in Biology. And the list goes on and on. I wish there was one well to draw from when recruitng Graphic Recorders...but there isn't. And that, I think, is what makes this work so darn special. ✨ --- (PS - If you or someone you know is ever interested in learning more about being a Graphic Recorder at the Sketch Effect, shoot me a note!)

Escape Burnout And Land Your Dream Job with The MAPPED Framework – Personalized Career Mentoring for High-Level Professionals in Creative Fields 🚀🌟
If you interview for a job and the employer asks you to complete a test project... RUN! 🏃♂️ Why? I've seen too many employers try and farm free work from people with this. It's especially common in creative fields. 🤨 Need a new logo? Just put a job listing up for a graphic designer and have their "test project" require it. Disgusting! So how can you sniff out the bad test projects from the good ones? ✅ When the finished product is not something they would be able to use in their business in ANY WAY ✅ When they offer to pay you for the work ✅ When the test project is requested from a headhunter or independent recruiter for their own screening needs ✅ When they ask for a portfolio and not actual labor for a new finished project If it's not any of these things, don't entertain it. 🔥 Take the reins. Own the gains. #interviewing #hiring #jobhunt
