I thought .tel domains were restricted to the publishing of contact information rather than websites. Portfolio looks great though!

Unfortunately I haven't updated it in a while, but I plan on doing that in a couple of weeks with recent projects.

#255I always ask people if they looked at website, my code or anything before hiring me and the overwhelming answer is no. I've always had to get things in front of people just get them to see the extent of work. People think you need a portfolio to get hired you don't. I've built over 30 web-apps in the last decade, and I've never bothered to screen cap them. People only care what you can immediately do for them and if…
Bring a color-print out of your projects. This worked wonders for me when I was applying to jobs. For reference, my website is here: https://www.alexpetralia.com . I printed out the first page, then could talk about each project quite tangibly with the print-out in hand. You still need a portfolio, you just also have to SHOW it. It is your job as an applicant, not theirs to research every candidate that comes by.

I actually finished mine the other day: https://sterlingdemille.com Boy, making a portfolio is excruciating. All these links make it look so easy, but when I started it was like pulling teeth. If anyone has feedback (harsh even), I'd love to hear it!
Can I ask what you used to make that pixelated avatar of yourself?

Most of my career has actually been on the backend! Just keep the site simple!
Not to diminish, but by most of your career you mean 2 years, right? Because you say you graduated from college with a BA in 2016. Truth be told that makes this much more impressive...

My personal site is https://jonathanstreet.com/ It's in need of some help so I've been looking around for inspiration. I'll be taking a look at everything posted. Some I've found previously I like: http://blog.echen.me/ https://www.liyaoxiang.com/ http://www.randalolson.com/ https://jvns.ca/ http://www.nowozin.net/sebastian/ http://www.emilio.ferrara.name/ http://danielnee.com/ http://daynebatten.com/ https://thomasl…
I actually quite like it. It is fast, to the point and funnels you through a way to contact you.
