I came across a job opening recently online for a local design firm. I submitted my coverletter/resume and portfolio samples via PDF. They called me back and asked if I could meet with their creative director. Of course I agreed...anyway. My interview is this coming Monday afternoon. I wanted to know everyone's thoughts and suggestions about how I should go about printing my portfolio samples for my book. They've seen the PDF work, now I have to bring my book. I've heard lots of different things over the years, now I want to hear yours.
I have mostly brand development/logos, a few print media related items, and the majority are websites. Should I try and print samples myself on my personal printer on such short notice? Should I take it to a local retail printing chain and pay the high price? How should I display the logos in my book? Print them on individual 8x10's?
Want to know everyone's thoughts, and how some of you have put together similar portfolios.
