Thanks for the helpful tips! You say quite frequently how important it is to tailor the case studies to the role one is applying for. When I hear this I always ask myself who only applies for one specific role? Or would you recommend to publish several tailored portfolios with different selection of case studies for each role I want to apply for?

This is pretty cool! About the tailoring to role…I have no specific industry interest. Is there anything you can do to help figure that out so you can actually make relevant case studies? My best one right now is for board game store, so I guess it could arguably be e-commerce, but beyond making navigation more simple, I didn’t do that much to it.
