The same way sending them the show will help. If your show is that big they can just look it up reviews or clips on YouTube or whatever. I don't think employers want to watch an entire season of someone's work to decide to hire them, but if it's a recognizable show like some of the ones pictured they may not even have to look it up

Yeah - but if you can show someone directly what you animated, that's far better than someone's review of what you animated. If a show is no longer available due to licensing, then the seas (or physical copies if you can find them) are the way to do that.

If it’s important enough they can find a copy themselves. They want to hire you after all, they should have some method to vet the industry they work in themselves.

Name me one employer that creates your resume for you…

I’ll wait.
