EL1 - thanks for the insight! To clarify I am studying both disciplines, I'm working on both user experience design (everything from research to information architecture to usability testing etc) and am also seeing my projects through the entire design process. I'm also coding some of my projects (frontend). But I do fully understand that these are separate disciplines and have not decided on what to focus in on just yet. Still looking for some nice portfolio examples as well :) thanks again for the feedback so far :)
I always like to see before to after: Here’s the problem we were trying to solve (data, customer feedback, business case driven) or here’s the hypothesis we sought to build, test, and improve — then see the roughs - things considered briefly but not fully explored as well as what was brought to market — then it is good to point to a measurement that the work yielded (good or bad - I like to hear someone explain a failure and what they would do differently as much as a X% increase in conversions etc.)
First of all, UX and UI are separate disciplines. Any decent hiring manager will know you're really junior if you conflate them - "UX/UI" is a recruiting buzzterm.
To answer your actual question, UX portfolios generally need to explain process much more than traditional design portfolios. Your final deliverable/final work artifacts are much, much less important for a UX designer than the work and thinking you did to arrive at that solution, and your ability to articulate why you chose that solution to the problem you were trying to solve, how you validated it, and what the outcomes (if any) were.
