Testimonials about this workshop
"You know what I found to be the most helpful, if simple and seemingly obvious bit of advice you gave regarding portfolio presentations? Telling people what the key takeaway should be and not leaving it to them to decipher that. Beautiful advice!I took that to heart for a recent presentation and then added a Coda that consisted of 3 things I can uniquely bring to the company. And I explicitly told them that I wanted to them to recognize that I’m thinking about what I can bring even if what I’m proposing doesn’t fully align with what their needs are.I got that job offer, and I recently accepted it. Thanks, again, Andrew, for all that you do."
"I tailored my portfolio the way you described and just received a dream job offer even in this market!"
