Description

In this episode of Design Office Hours, I answer a practical question I hear often:

What's the best platform to upload your design portfolio?

There are more options than ever—Behance, Coroflot, Instagram, your own site—and they each serve different purposes. So in this episode, I break down how to think strategically about your online presence and what to prioritize when applying for jobs.

Here's what I cover:

  • The strengths and limitations of platforms like Behance, Coroflot, and Instagram
  • Why your own website is still the most powerful (and often overlooked) tool
  • Why PDF portfolios still matter—especially when hiring managers are short on time
  • How to use your portfolio platforms together like an orchestra, not in isolation
  • What not to share publicly from projects you have done at a company

Whether you're applying for your first job or looking to level up your portfolio presence, this episode will help you build a smarter, more professional digital footprint.
