First Measure — Professional Portfolios

FIRST MEASURE / START HERE

Let's build your portfolio.

Your résumé tells us where you've been. These questions help us understand the story behind it — what matters to you, who you want to reach, and what you want your portfolio to accomplish.

01ABOUT YOU

Start with the basics.

Don't worry about writing perfectly. We'll shape the professional language later.

02YOUR GOALS

What should this portfolio do for you?

Your answer helps us decide what the portfolio should emphasize.

Tell us what you hope it will help you accomplish.

Examples: employers, recruiters, clients, customers, professional peers, academic institutions.

03YOUR EXPERIENCE

Tell us what matters.

Your résumé/CV does the heavy lifting here. We're looking for the things it may not fully explain.

PDF is preferred. Word documents are also fine.

04YOUR WORK

Show us the work behind the résumé.

Don't worry about writing case studies yet. A few honest notes are enough for us to find the strongest story.

Essential: up to 3 projects or accomplishments. Signature: up to 6. A project can be an initiative, accomplishment, campaign, research effort, major deliverable, body of work, or other example that represents what you do well.

05STYLE & DELIVERY

How should it feel?

You don't need to know web design. Tell us what feels right, and we'll recommend the visual direction.

06FINAL DETAILS

Anything else?

Privacy note: Please don't submit information that should not be shared for public portfolio use. We'll flag anything that appears to need clarification or permission before publication.

You're on your way.

This is the prepared intake experience. The next step is connecting the form to a real submission method so your résumé and answers reach First Measure securely.
