About Event

This event will be a portfolio review (feat. hot portfolio tips) followed by a Q&A about working as designers in industry. Everyone is welcome, not limited to portfolio campfire participants!

Congratulations on finishing your Portfolio Campfire journey! To end off these incredible 14 days, we've invited a few industry eyes to give their feedback on your work. After all, you must be tired of hearing from just us.

Due to the scale of the cohort, portfolios being critiqued will be randomly selected through signing up here by filling out the portfolio field when you RSVP

Please note, there will only be a handful of portfolios critiqued during our final campfire. However we recommend that you stay for the checkin and apply any feedback to your own portfolio.

10 minute Q&A will be welcome at the end of the critique.
