FESTIVAL : SHAPE YOUR PORTFOLIO INTO A POWERCELL FOR YOUR CAREER
Creating a winning
portfolio is not easy. What work to put first? What work to leave out? How best
to present it? ADFEST is offering a special initiative this year, conceived by
McCann Worldgroup. Shape My Portfolio provides advice by top creative
gurus on how participants can best curate their portfolio so they stand out
from the competition.
Creatives are being
offered an intensive 30-minute one-on-one mentorship with an ADFEST jury
member, speaker or senior creative to get exclusive feedback and advice on
their portfolio. In each session, they will get to discuss the strengths and
weaknesses of their portfolio, get help to create their personal brand, receive
tips on what employers are looking for, and receive help to land their dream
job. Put simply, it’s an invaluable opportunity.
Over two days, Friday
22 March and Saturday 23 March, 14.30-17.30, 24 young creatives will be able to
elevate their portfolio to a level that attracts employers. Numbers are limited
as this will be a very exclusive experience, headed by Valerie Madon, Chief
Creative Officer, McCann Worldgroup Asia Pacific.
"In an
increasingly competitive industry, the ability to stand out is everything. At
McCann Worldgroup, we believe in nurturing the next generation of creative
talent. We all know that a portfolio that isn't well crafted can hurt the
chances of even the best creatives. That's why we're excited to launch Shape
My Portfolio at ADFEST 2024, to help creatives curate their ticket to their
dream job," Valerie commented.
