Work with a real startup client — not a hypothetical brief
Most design portfolios contain the same thing: fictional apps and self-initiated redesigns. As a Portfolio School student you have the option to request a placement with a real company — accepted into a recognized startup accelerator program — and work on a genuine product brief with real constraints, real stakeholders, and real deliverables. In a job interview, that’s a completely different conversation.
What real client work does for your portfolio
- A case study built around an actual client brief you didn't write yourself
- A real, named company that exists and can be verified
- Genuine stakeholder constraints and product decisions
- Every client vetted through recognized startup accelerator programs
“I had tried for months to remake my portfolio on my own — but I kept feeling lost. The response I got from recruiters after I updated my portfolio was night and day. I started receiving offers — yes, multiple.“
