A portfolio designed for JOB APPLICAION?

archjimmy

Frankly, I have a well-designed portfolio, around 80 slides including my academic and professional work . They are various from studio works, writing essays, professional works, to the built works. But they are sort of academic, too many texts for one sheet.

So I was thinking to reorganize my portfolio again, formating all of the stuff and might condess them into several slides. The intention is to design a professional portfolio to apply for an job like, architect designer position, in a really good firm.....

So I do have some questions before I decided to start this tuff job....


. how many projects should I put into it ?
. how much size/per sheet is good for a screen review? A3 or A4?
. how many sheets might be good eought for one project?
. how many text should be put for each project? like 10% per project?

Any comments to this questions or any good examples, please leave you reply and show me here.

Once your advice has been adopted, and I am lucky to get a job, 20% of my first month salary is yours.... I am serious...
