SOCIAL NETWORKING

INSTAGRAM – WORK/INSPIRATION ACCOUNT

ARTSTHREAD – UPLOAD PORTFOLIO, KEEP UP TO DATE WITH PORTFOLIO STANDARD

LINKEDIN – BUILD NETWORK, PROFESSIONAL IDENTITY

Social networking is a really important way of showing your work and skills to the outside world. The platform it gives enables many people to see the work, from all over the world. I have created accounts purely based for my professional career, to showcase my work and skills for future careers. 

Instagram is great for inspiration and posting pictures of projects and work. Although opportunities may be less common, it allows an appreciation base to form.

Artsthread is a great way of getting you portfolio and skills out into the world. Portfolios can be uploaded for potential employers, universities and students to see. It is also good to keep up to date with portfolio standards and styles.

Linkedin is a perfect platform to sell yourself and your skills. You are able to build a network and a professional identity, key to potential employer. It also allows me to apply for jobs focused in my area.
