Say whether an item is a fictional exercise, a personal project or authorised real work. Explain your contribution. Never invent client names, spend, revenue or employment history to fill a gap.
01
Start with a clear label
02
Keep the first question
Include the question that shaped the exercise, the evidence you used and the explanation you produced. A polished answer becomes more useful when a reviewer can see the assumptions underneath it.
03
Invite specific feedback
Ask which claim needs evidence, which term is unclear or which alternative explanation you missed. Record one improvement and explain why it changed the work.
Remove confidential information and obtain permission before sharing real account material. A synthetic example is often enough to show how you think.
04
Make it easy to discuss
Keep a short main narrative and readable supporting material. Prepare to explain what the exercise cannot prove. A portfolio supports a conversation; it does not create a guaranteed hiring outcome.
