Topic:Portfolio
Answer:
5–10 projects in different categories: logos, branding, social media, posters, UI (if available), packaging. Variety and polished presentation matter most.
A strong junior graphic designer portfolio: 5–10 projects across different categories — logo & brand identity, social media creatives (Instagram, TikTok), posters/advertising, illustrations, packaging. You'll go to interviews with a ready portfolio of real work. Recommended showcase — Behance or your own portfolio site. Each project with context: client, brief, process, solution. Avoid copy-paste student work — recruiters notice. Add 1–2 real commercial projects (if you don't have any — offer free work to a business friend). Trends change, but the basics of composition and typography are timeless.
