OK. Let's pretend I'm in charge of a major project for an instructional book on modeling and everything that goes with it. That includes photography, MUA, Stylists, etc.

Based on your Resume (your profile and portfolio), would I hire you?

Here are some of the things I'm looking for:

Would you work well in a team environment?
Do you appear to have the knowledge required in your field?
Do I get the feeling that you would be able to explain your part in modeling in an easy, concise manner?
Does your work reflect a level that I feel would adequately illustrate this concept?

So, do you think I'd hire you?

And just for fun, I'll throw in a salary I'd offer you per hr. We'll say $100/hr is average just to get an idea of where you would stack up. Or, I may ask you to intern if I feel you would be a help, but you still have some things to learn.

Also, I may ask others to join my hiring team so be prepared to receive ratings from them as well.

Strong work, good attitude, and you seem fun to work with. I get the impression you're a team player and easy to get along with. You're on "The List", so that's a bonus.

I'd offer you a team leader position and $200/hr.

Most people prefer money over shits and giggles. tongue

You have good work and you seem decent enough. I'm not sure about the team player part. You do seem knowledgeable enough, though.

I'd offer you $100/hr to start.

You're enthusiastic. I don't feel you have a lot of experience but you do seem to want to jump right in. You seem very easy to get along with and willing to work on a team. 2 pluses for you. Your portfolio looks decent, though there isn't a lot to go by.

I think I'd start you at around $60/hr and see how it goes. smile

Your "About Me" is short and sweet. Not much that tells me what you're like. But your portfolio is outstanding.

I'd offer you a job based on that. I'd want to start you at about $150/hr with more possible depending on how you work in a group setting. smile
