A physical portfolio sounds old-fashioned to me. I don't feel like it's necessary unless you do packaging design and it'd be nice to see the packages in-person. If I was prepping my portfolio again, I wouldn't consider a physical book.
Either way, with an iPad OR with a physical book, what you're basically doing is flipping through pages of your designs. Only difference is one is in pixels and one is printed paper. It shouldn't matter (visually) to the person viewing it whether it's pixels or ink.
It may even work in your favor to use an iPad, as is implies you're an up-to-date person in touch with the latest methods.
- I've always feel like iPad i still a bit small for viewing things in detail.pango
- Could be a hi-res PDF and he zooms in to explain the parts of it. I would even send them the full PDF folio before the interview so they can view it during andiCanHazQBN
- after the interview. How would you leave your printed portfolio at every company?? Seems like you'd have to make a PDF either way. Might as well make that theiCanHazQBN
- focus.iCanHazQBN
- ya i did both. viewing experience is important for me i guess. Although i haven't had to job hunt for years. don't really know whats the norm anymorepango
- good points. thanks!scarabin
- I showed up with a traditional portfolio and the young kids you never seen a printed portfolio were so confused, befuddled and amazed...utopian
- With that said...I strongly recommend showing up with a tablet or Apple watch.utopian

Interviewed with a well-known product company. Maybe contract, maybe full-time. Had 3 interviews over the course of a week and felt pretty good about it. This week comes around and I haven't received a decision (they did reply saying they'd tell me on Tuesday). I can't wait around on them considering some contracts I have lined up. The laws of the universe tells me as soon as I sign up to something they'll contact me. Just life, I suppose?
- hope the right path plays out for you.Gnash
- and by 'product' do you mean apps, or an physical thing, like a toaster?Gnash
- Thanks Gnash! Even if it doesn't, it's not the end of the world. I'd just really like a shot at this company.studderine
- It's both product and software.studderine
- Physical + apps.studderine

While writing an email, sometimes I go back and un-capitalize all the first words just to seem like a more casual person.
Taking the time to do this just proves that I'm DOUBLY un-casual about things.
- https://www.mazech.c…utopian
- i leave out periods in the ned of a sentencedrgs
- That doesn't make you look casual it makes you look illiterate.********
- No it doesn't. Everyone knows you should capitalize words. That's not the impression it gives off.iCanHazQBN

I said I was going to hang out with a couple of friends. I was getting ready to leave even though I reluctantly don't want to go out tonight. I sent a text saying I was leaving. Then right after I get a text that one of our buddies that's not speaking to me is going to be there. (Girl related problems).
So now I'm sitting here trying to figure out an excuse not to go. Really dont feel like dealing with this shit right now.

Money can't buy happiness, but it's more comfortable to cry in a mansion than in your mom's basement.

I find my college life vs real world life to be so different. When I do things that reminds of the stuff I did in college, it brings back happy memories.

If you're stressed and always working and not that happy, are you successful?

we come into this world naked and that's how we leave it.

no, but that is definitely the path to success******** - Depends. Are you defining successful for your self? or is other people defining it for you?pango
- Same words to different people has different meaning.pango
- being able to pay your child supports and having enough money for that pack a day habit. man, cut the shit. hard work pays off********
