Think about your audience (recruiter, hiring manager), the time available (often a few minutes), and the context in which it will be reviewed (between meetings, sometimes on mobile). Make sure navigation is simple and fast, with a clear structure to move from one project to another and jump to the most important sections. Keep in mind that the portfolio often replaces a design exercise during the hiring process, • Be concise and decision-oriented. For each project, make the content scannable in a few seconds: the problem, your role, constraints, key choices, and the outcome. Avoid long texts and generic process or workshop descriptions that could apply to any project. If you want to show your method, do it in a dedicated section, • Put visuals at the center. Use high-quality screenshots and highlight the result of your work. Show the expected level of craft, and briefly explain what the reader should focus on, • Treat the portfolio as a personal branding exercise. It is a personal project that should reflect your personality while staying professional. The interface should feel spacious, leave room for visuals, and reflect current standards (typography, hierarchy, spacing, clarity), • Select a small number of highly relevant projects. It is better to show 2 to 4 strong case studies tailored to the role than many average projects. Choose the ones where your impact and leadership are the most visible, • Clarify your contribution and your level of leadership. As a manager, we want to understand how you framed the problem, aligned stakeholders, made decisions, prioritized, and improved the practice (guidelines, design system, rituals, quality), • Show impact, not only screens. Add results when possible (conversion, adoption, time saved, quality, reduced support). If you do not have metrics, explain which signals you used (feedback, testing, analytics, learnings) and what you changed as a result Meet our Head of Design, Romain Séchan: We welcome collaborators with their diverse perspectives and experiences to power us forward. These often far exceed conventional job requirements and help us create a culture of continuous learning.
