17. Work Samples
Insert samples of your work here. You want to offer something that a perspective employer can take and see the quality of your work for them self. Now not everyone will have some small little document that will work nicely here, but you can also use pictures of relevant things you have done or samples of things you have done. It doesn’t have to be a perfect representation. It would be nice if it was, but just giving a visual helps and that alone allows you to talk about what went on. Class projects for courses taken at DeVry can count as a sample of your work (especially for those changing careers). If you are using a class project, just make note of it here and attach the project as a separate file in the dropbox. (Give this some thought though and don’t stick in things that will be difficult for another to appreciate or samples that might not leave the right impression.)
