🔎第一階段: 準備作品集、履歷
🔺Part 2.景觀設計師準備作品集的5個小建議
求職的作品集最重要的，不是呈現你的設計有多偉大，而是展現你"可被雇用的"能力。簡言之"不是你想表現什麼，而是要從你的雇主"希望看到什麼"來安排。
特別是應屆畢業生， 如果一個作品集裡，透過各種不同的設計案，展現你能操從大到小的尺度、規劃、設計到 細部大樣、符合英國法規與環境的景觀工程與植栽設計，甚至是環境影響評估報告。即使能呈現的環節深淺不一，但已顯示出你完整的景觀專業訓練。
1️⃣ ’’表達你的想法’’和’’圖面漂不漂亮’’一樣重要
在各種酷炫的表現法之餘，身為景觀設計師你的想法是什麼?畢竟不是3D繪圖師或是平面設計師，追求圖面美的背後，景觀設計師的職責、企圖心在哪?案子的起源和故事發展你能用扼要的文字、有邏輯的圖面講清楚嗎?
2️⃣可以準備不只一份作品集
有時候會因為投履歷的策略不同，而需要不同的作品集，像如果是需要海投公司，廣泛性的呈現各種尺度、技能的作品技能會比較吃香; 但如果是投特定領域的公司，作品都呼應某個領域就是很好的策略(他們會覺得你就是那個對的人)。
3️⃣作品順序有玄機
最好吸引人的案子一定都放前面，在英國投履歷的話也可以把英國的案子放前面一點 ，或是由你自己想講的''故事''脈絡決定順序。
4️⃣分門別類，種類多
除了案子的屬性分類外，若是學校作業，建議加上”academic work”，以和真實工作經 驗的案子有區隔。另外整份作品集裡要兼顧全面性，展現自己能操作的各種尺度、工 作階段和嫻熟的軟體與手繪技巧等。
5️⃣檔案大小、版面尺寸
很多公司在徵才廣告上都會敘明作品集的檔案大小(常見為10-15mb)或頁數限制，用意也是希望大家''挑重點''放，不要''落落長''看完也沒有印象。

🔎 STAGE 1: Preparation of Portfolio, CV
🔺Part 2- 5 tips for preparing your design portfolio
The most crucial aspect that needs to be displayed in your portfolio isn’t about showing how great your design is, but to showcase your diverse range of skills and abilities to be employed. In short, your portfolio isn’t about what you want to show, but what your employer wants to see.
In particular, fresh graduates should demonstrate competency through exhibiting design projects that display a broad spectrum of skills and thinking such as: Scale (large to small), project stages (planning to detailed design), proficiency to design and plan in line with British regulations, environmental engineering, planting design and even environmental impact assessment reports. Even if the depths of each project presented is different, it should adequately show your good grasp on the landscape professional training you have had.
1️⃣ Content and Visual Aesthetics are equally important!
Apart from all forms of graphical expressions, what are your thoughts as a landscape architect? After all, landscape architects are neither 3D renderers nor graphic designers/illustrators. What are the responsibilities and ambitions of a landscape architect? Is it just about the diagram looking nice? Can the diagram and simple concise text explain your project’s context, ethos, purpose and storyline logically? Remember, every diagram and word has to earn its worth on the page.
2️⃣ Tailoring your Portfolio to suit different needs.
If your objective is to mass apply for a job, a portfolio that presents a wide range of work, depths, skillset would suit better. However, if you are applying for a specific company or a job with a specific skillset, tailoring your portfolio to respond to the needs of the employer would be a better strategy (They will think that you are the right person for the job)
3️⃣ Strategizing the display order of your works.
Organize the most attractive projects to the front of your portfolio. If you are applying a job in the UK, you can put projects that are based in the UK at the front OR you can organize the flow of the works according to the narrative you wish to express.
4️⃣ Diversify & categorize your portfolio.
Other than diversifying your selection of works, it is recommended that you tag school work as “academic work” to distinguish between professional practice and university work.
Also, your portfolio should be comprehensive and showcase the competency of your abilities such as proficiency in handling different project stages, software and sketching skills or even photography!
5️⃣ Portfolio’s File & Layout size
Most companies will state the maximum file size (commonly 10-15mb) or limit the number of pages of the portfolio. The intention is for applicants to objectively focus and effectively present key points that will allow your application to be memorable. Having a portfolio that is an archive of your work history will leave no impression.
