Introduction to Freelance & Industry Management

Goal: To be able to present ourselves in a professional manner visually, verbally and in writing.

  • Relevant and up-to-date CV
  • Online portfolio - professional website
  • Social media accounts: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn
  • Well written cover letters that are tailored to the job/company/brand you are trying to get
  • Youtube if you're interested in making videos
  • A blog if you're interested in blogging
  • Business cards
  • Logo for your business name

Assessment task:
  • We will be doing a mock interview for a job we want to apply for, we will be assessed on this interview.
  • Create a CV
  • A mini portfolio (4 of your BEST images of your work on a PDF)
  • Cover letter for job/internship you want to apply for
  • Up-to-date LinkedIn page
  • Professional Instagram (minimum of 8 images)
  • Professional Facebook page (minimum of 8 images) 
- Approach all of the above with creativity and professionalism.
- Goal is to create a package of self promotional material  that must be practical and convincing
- What you submit must be sleek and show attention to detail in all areas
- All to be submitted as ONE PDF file.
- Everything you create as part of the assessment task to submit will be used in your mock interviews so make sure they are at the standard you would expect and present at the real interview
Mock interviews take place in week 9, 10 and 11

My personal strengths:
  • Always on time for a job
  • Reliable - Never back out of a job last minute, cancel and always deliver what I say I will
  • Clean & hygienic - Kit and personal hygiene
  • Friendly & personable
  • Very organised when it comes to jobs
