# Job Portfolio
A job portfolio is a curated set of work samples you present while job searching--case studies, projects, or campaigns that show what you can deliver. It can live on a website, a PDF deck, or a hosted profile. It answers "show me" where your resume answers "tell me."
## Deeper Context

Include 3-5 projects most relevant to your target roles. For each: context, your role, methods or tools, and outcome. Optimize for mobile loading and easy sharing via one URL. Job portfolios differ from broader career portfolios that may include training records or performance reviews--here the focus is demonstrating hire-ready skills.

## FAQ

### What should I include in a job portfolio?

Three to five relevant projects with problem, your role, tools, and measurable outcome when possible. Add visuals or links to live work.

### Do I need a portfolio if I already have a resume?

For roles where work samples matter--design, development, writing, marketing, product--a portfolio often helps significantly. For others, resume plus LinkedIn may suffice.
