First interview next week... how do I take my portfolio?

Hey guys,

I've been learning code just over 10 months and I've got my first interview next week. It's not a junior position so I probably don't have a great chance but I'll just enjoy the experience and learn from it.

My question was though, how do you take your portfolio in?

I originally thought they just looked at them on their own computers but after doing a bit of research it seems you have to take your own?

I haven't got that many websites to show so what should I do?

Do I have to print them? Do you print each page of the site or something?

Cheers Joe

Usually I try have an iPad ( or decent sized tablet) with me and tether with my phone for internet. If you have print work, you can have them presented on the iPad aswell. From interviews I've had though they usually bring up your work on their own computer to show during the interview and ask you to break down how you built that site / artwork/ etc.

Thanks Michael.

My Dad has an IPad so I could just transfer my work on to that and then take that with me.

Thanks Joe
