What you do mean by “they?”

Copywriters, art directors and creative directors yes

Hi, I hope your doing well. I’m having a hard time understanding the question, but I’ll try and answer it.

But yes, we (Art Directors / Copywriters) do create portfolios (we create them digitally, normally using Squarespace, there’s other options as well) and add our work that shows off our designs / copy / creative thinking etc.

With the Ad copy I’m assuming you’re talking about copywriters? But yes copywriters will create a portfolio as well with pieces that show off their writing.

Not really a specialist are you?

Can you provide more context on this question

Wondering what people think about my situation. I’ve been offered a role with a company. The job description didn’t mention college degree as a requirement. On my CV I have a section listed as “Education” and under it I have “Business Studies” with the university name and the 3 years that I attended the course (2.5 to be exact). It’s a 4 year degree and under this I have my High School equivalent with the years I attended there. The education wasn’t mentioned in the interviews. Continued below.

I see this question about how to display side projects often, so putting this out there for anyone who might find it useful:

There’s no such thing as side projects, in my eyes. Every project is an opportunity to display your creativity, and the few you’re most proud of make it to your book. Generally, the consensus these days is that we want our advertising to not look/feel like advertising. So, why should you be concerned to separate what was and wasn’t “advertising?”
