I don't think it's a requirement, but I'm pretty sure mine's helped me get hired, both for freelance and full-time gigs. I've definitely had interviews where it seemed like they were already sold on me before the interview even started. > Only devs would care about another devs portfolio (in my opinion). It's often devs who perform some of the interviews ;) Also, my portfolio has quite a bit more content then you'd ever want to put in a resume. I don't feel like there's any need to limit it to 1-2 pages, so it has 90+ projects with pictures and 1-3 paragraphs of text describing each one. I think that has to have some impact, even if only on a subliminal level.
