The article “5 reasons you should start an online portfolio” written by Chris Lehmann is a great article stating multiple reasons why everybody should have an online portfolio to keep up with the times and transfer paper documents online along with the fact that many employers are looking at Google and searching your name to find out the wanted information about you based on what you do or say on the internet. It is also easier file through an organized website to find wanted information than searching through a huge binder, employers can also look at your website as many times as they would like however if you are still lost in your times of paper copies and binders the can only look at it when you are there with them. Having a digital portfolio requires less time adding important information into the website than updating your paper portfolio for weeks before you go into your next interview
I believe that having a digital portfolio is a really great thing to have and is really well worth all of the effort that you put in to the website. You can also personalize the website. Having a positive and strong online presence is a great thing to have. I have a Twitter, Instagram, and a Facebook. I can honestly say that I have a positive online presence and I do not post negative or mean statuses on any social networking sites because of the information I know that everybody can see if they want to. This is a very good article and I believe everybody should have an online portfolio.
I plan on helping my friends and family transfer there paper portfolio to online portfolios so that they have a better opportunity of being hired. Along with the helping my friends and family have positive online presents so that employers can have a good reference of who they are and how these people act. I have a love for learning and helping others learn. So I will help everybody I can to succeed in the work place.
