1 Choose relevant projects

The first step is to select the projects that best illustrate your design process and the outcomes you achieved. You may have a lot of projects to choose from, but you want to focus on the ones that are most relevant to the position and the employer you are applying for. Think about the challenges, goals, and criteria of the projects, and how they align with the expectations and needs of the employer. You also want to choose projects that showcase your versatility, creativity, and innovation, as well as your technical skills and knowledge.

La elección de los proyectos deberá ir acorde al cliente objetivo de esta presentación de dise?o, es importante conocer su rubro para ofrecer ejemplos, es decir, a una empresa dedicada a aeropuertos, poca ganancia tendrá al ver nuestros proyectos hoteleros. Con los proyectos a elegir debemos conseguir que el cliente se visualice trabajando con nosotros.

2 Create a portfolio

Creating a portfolio to showcase your design process and final products is essential and can be done through various formats and platforms, such as websites, blogs, videos, slideshows, or PDFs. It's important to make it clear, concise, and engaging. Your portfolio should include a brief introduction that summarizes your background, skills, and objectives; a description of each project that explains the context, objectives, scope, and constraints; a documentation of your design process that shows the steps, methods, tools, and decisions you used; a presentation of the final product that demonstrates the results, impacts, and benefits of your design; and a reflection that evaluates your performance, lessons learned, and areas for improvement.

3 Tailor your resume

Tailoring your resume is the third step to highlight your design process and the achievements of your projects. A resume should be concise and professional, summarizing your qualifications and experience for a specific position. You want to make sure that your resume reflects the keywords and criteria of the job description, showcasing relevant skills, knowledge, and accomplishments. To tailor your resume, use a clear and consistent format with sections such as summary, education, work experience, skills, and awards. Describe your work experience with bullet points beginning with strong action verbs that show your role and contribution. Use quantifiable and specific examples to demonstrate your achievements and impact. Include keywords and phrases related to the position and the employer, such as design process, problem-solving, analysis, collaboration, or communication. Lastly, use a professional font, size, and color with no typos or errors.

4 Prepare for interviews

As the final step, you should prepare for interviews to showcase your design process and the outcomes of your projects. This is a great opportunity to communicate your value and personality to the employer, as well as show your enthusiasm and interest for the position. To do this, you should research the employer and position, review your portfolio and resume, practice your answers using the STAR method (situation, task, action, result), dress appropriately and professionally, bring copies of your portfolio and resume, and express your passion and motivation for the job. Being confident and positive can help you stand out from other applicants.

Hay que ser realistas al momento de presentar un proceso y producto, suele suceder que presentar expectativas irreales o bajo una condición única e irrepetible en los próximos proyectos pondrá en peligro la credibilidad de cualquier proceso de dise?o y construcción
