Portfolio question.

Post by Nick Schwab »

If I sell a piece on anything except full content (in which my name might not be attached anymore,) can I possibly use the piece in a portfolio for a writing job in the future. Or would an employer look at that and frown. Or, would they smile, because I have experience?


Sorry, I am asking alot of questions, this is just my first day on the site, and I plan to use it a long, long time. Thank you admins, and Chris, for your patience, and quick, efficient response.

If you still have rights to it or the byline, ie you sold it for usage or unique, I don't see why not. It's your work with your name attached to it. Many times the customer lets you know what website it's published on (under Licenses to your content link) - other times you can find it by Googling... give it time and you'll have plenty of worthy content published under your name! Good luck and welcome, it's a lot of fun!
