- Hi Rose,I used Canva, the free version, for creating my portfolio. It can be very suitable for quickly sharing work with potential clients because you can share it with a link, like a website. http://bit.ly/3alBMc1I have five years of experience in social media marketing without a website, but that didn't stop me on my journey, so no pressure.Build a portfolio, start exploring and connecting, and everything will sort out when it is time. :)Feel free to ask me anything if you need help.
- I wouldn't say you necessarily need a site like squarespace. A lot of recruitment in digital (that I've seen) still functions off the basis of sending CV and portfolio PDFs around. Making a site can be a bit more intensive in terms of effort and time investment, so if you have the means to make a nice portfolio just as a PDF even that would suffice. I think the content of what you're showing is more important than the medium itself.(Of course if you have the time, money and patience to build a site it definitely doesn't hurt and can look amazing.)One application I received that stood out actually made herself a slide deck/PowerPoint portfolio that not only introduced herself but then went into case studies too, it was a pretty great way for us to get a full picture of her even before meeting her, so you could try less conventional methods like that too!
