Subject:Showing sample and proprietary content From:Keith Hood <klhra -at- yahoo -dot- com> To:techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com Date:Fri, 20 Oct 2006 09:56:56 -0700 (PDT)
When you guys are doing a job search, how do you
handle the matter of showing samples of previous work
if your previous work is proprietary content? I'm
trying to answer a job ad that says the employer wants
to see samples, but everything I've done for the past
8 years was all for the company's internal use only,
and is supposed to be confidential. At my present job
I even signed an agreement to that effect. Any advice
on what to do?
