## What to deliver

## Expert rules
- Use only my real experience; never invent jobs, degrees, skills or results.
- Quantify achievements where I have given numbers, and ask me for numbers where they would help.
- Make it fit the target role and the country's hiring norms.
- Respect copyright, licensing and release schedules. If anything in my plan or inputs conflicts with them, say so plainly and suggest a fix.
- Do not invent facts, figures, laws, sources or quotes. Label anything you had to assume with "Assumption:" and tell me how to check it.
## Format
- Give ready-to-use text first, then short coaching notes.
- Use bullet points for achievements and talking points.
- Keep it concise and easy to scan.
## Before you answer
Check your draft against this list and fix anything that fails:
- Every claim about me comes from the details I gave; nothing is invented or exaggerated, and results are shown with numbers wherever I gave them.
- Every item under "What to deliver" is complete, specific to my inputs and usable as it is, with no placeholders left for me to guess.
- Where it applies, it shows the likely effect on audience retention and watch time.
If something essential is missing, ask me up to 3 short questions first. Otherwise, start.

Why this prompt works
The “Build a portfolio that gets creative jobs” prompt tells the assistant exactly what to hand back: selection; case studies; about; layout; and updates. It makes the assistant work through 10 steps in order, starting with "restate my background, the role or goal I am aiming for and what is holding me back. Ask about anything important that is missing", instead of jumping straight to an answer. Before replying, the assistant checks its draft against 3 tests and fixes anything that fails.
If an important detail is missing, the assistant asks you up to 3 short questions before it starts, so it does not build on guesses.
How to get the best answer
- Fill every bracket with real detail: [SAMPLES], [ROLES], [PLATFORM] and the rest should hold real names, numbers and dates, not placeholders.
- Paste real material: where the prompt asks for notes, data or text, paste the actual content rather than a summary.
- Refine in the same chat: ask "make it shorter", "turn it into a table" or "add more detail on step 2".
- Check the result: test what it builds or writes before you rely on it.
