Hi,
there may be another (additional) ethical issue about portfolio.
You must consider the copyright.
For me, it would be difficult - that means - impossible, to put in any of
my work files, because they are copyrighted and confidential.
I would have to create new examples, if I want to apply for a job.
So I would not only have to think about changes, but about new creations.
It was the same with my old job. Some years ago, I had the situation: no
working examples. I applied as programmer. Fortunately, I included some
fanzines, I produced before.
So they asked me, If I would like to become a technical writer. Strange.
I started the job, and it worked. I knew both processes: software
development and writing. To include these fanzines with poetry and SF was a
kind of adventure, anyhow.
Best regards
Bernd
