    Building an Audio Portfolio That Impresses Recruiters

    A diploma is an entry point, but in the audio industry, it is the portfolio that convinces an employer or client to trust you.

    Vary your projects, but stay consistent

    Show 4 to 6 projects that demonstrate different skills (mixing, mastering, sound design, recording) rather than ten similar projects. Quality always prevails over quantity.

    Document your process

    Recruiters appreciate seeing not only the final result, but also your approach: Pro Tools session screenshots, before/after of a mix, explanation of your creative choices.

    Use the school's resources

    Projects completed as part of Musitechnic's AEC program, studio recordings, end-of-session projects, form a solid portfolio base right out of the program.

    A professional online presence

    A simple website or a SoundBetter/LinkedIn profile with embedded audio examples is now almost essential to get noticed in the Montreal market.
