The internet has make today’s communication much more easier. In the past, graphic designer always carry a big black file to keep all their works in. Now, with the convenience of multimedia, graphic designer can consider to create a website/blog for their online portfolio. Your chance of exposure will certainly increase. People can easily navigate your portfolio by just searching keywords at search engine.
When you are offered for an interview for a job, the interviewer will certainly ask you to bring along your portfolio. Your chance of being offered an interview is only depends on your academic results. If you can attached the links together with your cover letter and resume, you will have bigger chance to impress the interviewer, hence even if you are not really good in academic marks, just impress him/her with your creative portfolio!
