DO apply to all jobs…DON’T worry, something will come about from your job search.

For my first 3 job offers involving developer and software roles 2 of the 3 companies seemed very interested in me because I had a custom and well built portfolio using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and some backend API's. I personally think portfolio's can be very useful in the job search process. I don't think a portfolio should be thrown together in a couple hours with a website builder but a portfolio definitely does not need to be amazing or game changing to have an impact.

Do you have to reveal the source code to have something in your portfolio, what about if its something you have monetized that you don't want to be open source, can you still have it on your portfolio

Nice video Kenny, but right now I’ve been out of work since last year. I’m coming from the healthcare field, but I’m into robotics it’s a hobby, and so I’ve took programming classes years ago. Right now I’m doing a python boot camp from Udemy. What do you think where I should start because I do like the idea of working from home….

[maits]

I would still suggest to update your portfolio especially if your switching to Freelance as it’s going to be your calling card

[emanuelb]

Thank you for being straight to the point. I was wondering if I still need a portofolio for my 3rd job :).

Great content Kevin. But I wish you cut between section is a little bit more refine. There seems no pause between sentences (between sections) and it sound weird.
