Why should I apply?
Our Portfolio Reviews give you:
- Personalized feedback on your work from professional designers and art directors
- Tips on how to present your portfolio for jobs and internships
- Connections with other emerging designers who are starting out in the field

Your portfolio doesn’t have to be perfect—simply bring a project or two that you’re ready to share and to talk about.
How will it work?
Our Portfolio Reviews are fast-paced. You’ll join small breakout rooms on Zoom with three emerging creatives and one reviewer.
You’ll rotate through multiple reviewers during the session, so you’ll get a range of perspectives and meet a few faces in the community.
The format is designed to give you actionable takeaways in a casual and supportive environment.
Who’s reviewing?
We'll be joined by a range of reviewers, including creatives from our Company Partners – check them out below. Stay tuned as we’ll be announcing our full line-up soon.
FAQs
How do we select attendees for our Portfolio Review events?
We review all applications to make sure that your work aligns with the discipline we're focusing on (graphic design this time). Ideally, you’ll have a handful of projects or examples you’re ready to share during the event.
Because demand is high, spots are allocated by a lottery system. First-time applicants get priority, but we encourage repeat applicants to apply again—you’ll be added to a waitlist if spaces open up.
Those invited to attend will receive an email at least a week before the event to confirm their place. If you don’t get a spot this time, we’d love for you to apply again next time. Just let us know on the form that you’ve applied before, and we’ll be sure to prioritise your application.
I’ve attended a Portfolio Review event before, can I still apply?
Yes! But please note that you will be automatically added to our waitlist. We love seeing familiar faces, but our goal is to give as many people as possible the opportunity to attend, especially those who haven’t yet had the chance.
If you have any questions or concerns about this, please don’t hesitate to reach out and we’ll be sure to do what we can to help. We appreciate your understanding and can’t wait to see you – whether this time or at a future event!
