NoCapWiki editorial explanation
1. What does it mean?
포폴 shortens 포트폴리오, borrowed from 'portfolio.' In study and job-search conversations it commonly means a collection presenting a person's projects or creative work. '포폴 정리' is organizing that collection; '포폴 피드백' is feedback on it. The longer English word is already the natural translation.
Also written or said as 포트폴리오, portfolio, popol
2. The nuance
A portfolio is not identical to a resume. A resume summarizes qualifications, while a work portfolio lets the reader inspect selected projects; an application may request both. 포폴 does not specify whether the collection is a website, PDF, physical folder or another format. Compare 취준, the broader process of preparing for employment, and 스펙, qualifications or credentials. In a financial conversation, 포트폴리오 can mean investment holdings, so use the surrounding topic rather than assuming every 포폴 is a design-job application.
3. Examples
“포폴에는 결과물뿐 아니라 내가 맡은 역할도 적었어.”
In my portfolio, I included my role as well as the finished work.
“지원 전에 친구한테 포폴 피드백을 부탁했어.”
Before applying, I asked a friend for feedback on my portfolio.
