Level Design Portfolio
complete some of the projects in the Projects category
find a web host
if you can afford it, register your own domain
don't use wix... a free wordpress is probably better
if your portfolio is visually oriented, just make an artstation
flatten the web template
say what you are at the top
remove all the crap from the web template, delete everything except the home page
create project pages
don't write too much
include 3-5 screenshots and a short video, and links to external websites and reviews
test on mobile
imagine you're a bored manager scrolling through your e-mails
(optional) get a twitter, use it at least once a week
show that you are following industry discourse and industry figures
helps you pretend you know people, helps you memorize names
upload a CV
1 page at most, less text is almost always better
include your name, portfolio URL, and desired dev role
don't put your GPA or your minor, but list any big awards, grants, scholarships
don't pad your "skills and interests" section, imagine reading 40 of these and it won't seem as cute
omit your home address or phone number, you're putting this on the internet
include a PDF in case they want to save and download it, etc
your CV has two functions: (1) list your work experience and qualifications, and (2) give your interviewer stuff to ask you about... don't bore them
update your portfolio regularly
after every project / before you apply
