Understanding your users
Hiring managers say nine out of ten portfolios are poorly curated. This chapter is about knowing who will review yours, and what they need.
Problems this chapter solves
You don’t know who your portfolio is for.
You’re not sure which kind of employer you want to work for.
Job ads list so many requirements that you can’t tell which ones matter.
The job ad doesn’t match the role you’d actually be doing.
You don’t meet every requirement, and you’re not sure whether to apply.
Every reviewer seems to want something different.
A recruiter will see your portfolio before the hiring manager does.
