Question,...
most of my works are web design,
should I bring a printed version in portfolio folder for interview ?any advice ?
- Bahiatronic0
Not a bad idea at all... at least interviewers know what is your design looks like...

yeah bring in a big picture of a middle finger and keep it in reserve, if the interviewer gives you shit for no reason then hand him the picture.

In opposite side of your presentation i reckon :P!!

without a doubt. print them.
most folks will get irritated if you just hand over a page with a bunch of links on it. myself included.
if i like what i see, then i will visit the sites.and for the love-a-christ iron your damned shirt.

yeah wear a suit dude. you might not have to everyday but do it on your interview day

Well, if you're applying for a webdesign position I would bring my laptop or something. This way you can show what you got live and watch the interviewers reaction and elaborate if necessary.... (show your best 5 or so)
I would personally not print it out, because it wasn't intended for print...
If you want to print it anyway I'd print full screendumps...I like this site, what happend to your other site?

i agree with solinque. would you present your print work on a powerbook?
i say get a strong online portfolio and bring some printed versions with you. only show them if they are requested...otherwise present your work as it was intended...online.

Let us see it first!

present it on interviewer's computer ?

id bring both - usually people like to look at printed stuff then visit the site... i dont know why but they liek to hold stuff i guess lol
i like your site alot the mice r great! haha
btw guys being a girl trying to fig out what to wear at an interview suxs! one of those times i really wish i could just go to freaking mens wearhouse and get a suit lol
- Solinque0
Uhhmmm, in that case try to borrow one. Don't expect the company to have a computer hookup!!! It's important when you apply for a digital job to show something that's live...
Would you show an art director some jpg's when applying for a print job?
- tfs__mag0
don't show up naked... they won't think it's as funny as you do.
- yellowant0
agreed @ tara|gee...
I dunno what to wear yet...(+_+;)
I wish I can wear jeans.
