Prepare Your Professional Materials
Your resume is your introduction to an employer. It presents a snapshot of your work and educational experiences. Have your resume reviewed by a Career Advisor. Digital reviews and virtual appointments can be made on ArtCenter Connect.
A portfolio website is one of the most important ways to showcase your work and let others know about you and what you create. It’s essential for participating in ArtCenter’s recruiting events, appealing to future employers, and building your personal brand as a creative professional.
As an artist or designer, you need to let people know who you are and what you make. There are a number of contexts for this: an about me statement, a bio, or an artist statement. This should be included on your Grad Show Website and on your Portfolio Website.
LinkedIn is your key tool for staying up to date on industry trends or opportunities. Build a strong profile and then connect to others to build your network. The ArtCenter Alumni Group is a great place to start.
