Step 9 - Register your e-portfolio

This step is optional but you may find it beneficial for finding employment during or more likely, after graduating from your program at Capilano College.

It involves "registering" your e-portfolio to an e-portfolio directory website, ZENPortfolios.com. The service is free and protects your privacy.

You select which region you are interested in working in, which sectors you wish to work in, and you include information about your skills and credentials. Employers looking for grads can go to the ZENPortfolios.com website and can fill out a form listing their criteria for potential employees. The ZENPortfolios application searches for matches... if your skills and interests match what an employer is looking for, you would then receive an email from ZENPortfolios letting you know that an employer is interested in viewing your e-portfolio and you would be provided the employer's contact email address.

If you would like to permit the matching employer to look at your e-portfolio and consider contacting you for a job opening, you just add their email address to your list of allowed viewers (see the privacy step).

Here is the link to ZENPortfolios.com
