I am wondering how to format freelance on my resume. Over the years I’ve done some freelance on my own here and there. In addition to that, I’ve also done some freelance with my art director partner. The nature of the work with my partner has been more branding and more conceptual.

I often see a freelance section at the top of one’s experience, since it’s typically a recurring thing through out one’s creative career. My advice is to just be sure to include total years freelancing, major brands/ clients and the agencies that you contracted with. If you pepper it in, between full time gigs it could get confusing, and make you look like a job hopper.

Hi All, My joining date is older in offer letter. I did not get updated letter with new date. Just some screenshot from recruiter in some drop down. When will we get virtual onboarding link. How do they know whether we joined or not.

This is a shot in the dark but here it goes: about 5 years ago I remember a freelance copywriter in the bay area published a great LinkedIn article that documented all his efforts to land gigs with a write up and a link to his Google sheets file where you could see rounds of interviews/progress. The obvious takeaway: job hunts are a volume play, but the visual proof really brought the point to life.

Anyone happen to recall what I'm describing? If so can you post the link/individual?
