What are some strategies for selecting relevant projects to showcase in a creative job application?

When selecting projects to showcase in a creative job application, consider the following strategies:

1. Relevance: Choose projects that are relevant to the job you're applying for. If the job is in graphic design, for example, select projects that highlight your skills in this area.

2. Quality over quantity: It's better to have a few high-quality projects than a large number of mediocre ones. Focus on showcasing your best work.

3. Variety: Show a range of skills and styles. This can demonstrate your versatility as a creative professional.

4. Include a link to your portfolio: This gives recruiters a more comprehensive view of your work.

This slide demonstrates a layout, ideal for showcasing creative work. Ideally, your work experience should be a carefully-curated "exhibit"of relevant projects. Think carefully about which of your creative projects to showcase in a way that's relevant to your desired creative job. However, you may also choose to include a link to an actual portfolio of your work to give a recruiter or hiring manager a better feel of your artistic side.
