A portfolio will normally be shown at the interview with the employer, It should include the work you are most proud of and what you feel shows them best what you are all about as a designer. It shouldn't just include final pieces, thumbnails and rough ideas are appreciated also. Depending on what sort of company they are your portfolio may have to be rearranged and have work removed or added to, because you don't want to present for example illustration work to a company that works strictly on computer based design.
A great deal of opportunities and design work now come from having an online portfolio because most clients/employers looking for a designer will go to the internet to begin their search before anything. I already have a sort of temporary portfolio on Behance but I am looking to have a website of my own up at some point this year so I can establish myself in advance before finishing up with education.
