Why shouldI bother witha personalwebsite?
You might think you don’t need a personal website. Especially if you don’t have that much experience or enough assets to build a strong portfolio. Still, even without a rich background, having a personal web-site creates a great impression of you as a professional.
Ideally, your website becomes the main gate to your other on-line activity. If you have creative work to showcase, don’t forget to link it to your Behance or Dribble portfolios, blog, or your photography page. If you don’t have any of those, your website can serve as a simple busi-ness card with links to your social media profiles and contact details.
A great advantage of having a personal website is that it helps you keep your resume short and sweet. If you simply include a link to your website, make sure the hiring manager is going to click on it. Also, unlike a resume, your personal website is a dynamic space you can up-date with new skills and projects.
