How long would you have to freelance with a company before you specifically say on your resume I was a Freelancer at X agency? I think I’m getting good experience at the company I’m currently freelancing at and think it could help me with my full time job search

There is no time limit. If you freelance for 2 weeks or 2 months, it counts.

I hop from project to project and from agency to agency. Sometimes it’s a week, a month, etc. I simply list the agencies, regardless of time.

At the end of the day, recruiters ask for your resume to make sure they feel confident in your track record. My list of clients is designed to reassure them that I know the general process & lingo within a creative agency.

3-4 Months. No weeks.

If they pay for your time and expertise list it. You don’t have to necessarily list time frame you worked there. You can say, “freelanced for various agencies such as X, Y, and Z.”

^ That’s what I do. I list my job as Freelance Senior Produce and list agencies and clients I’ve worked on since the year I started freelancing to the present.

There's a lady at work who's probably very smart and good at her job but i feel like she's so dumb sometimes because she always has ideas about how we can reduce our workload by moving it to another team offshore which is obviously great for the company because they have to pay less money for that work but it could mean that our jobs become redundant eventually. Our company has had these sort of transformations in the past and i just don't understand how she doesn't see this
