When graduating from college, I had a similar problem. I created different
samples from scratch. Develop a small manual, an online document, or
other formats that a potential employer might look for. I wanted to
interview with an environmental group and created an environmental
impact statement. Look at what companies you will be interviewing
with and create documents that fit their requirements.
