Two approaches to adding freelance/contract work to resume [on hold]
- by melhosseiny
Approach A
Title, Company A
Freelance + Title, Company B
Title, Company C
Freelance + Title, Company D
Title, Intern, Company E
Approach B
Title, Company A
Title, Company B
Title, Self
Title, Intern, Company D
In approach B, you would list all freelance/contract work you did under the "Title, Self" experience. For example:
Company A
Project 1
Project 2
Company B
Project 1
Question Which of these two approaches is better? And why?
Update I think there's value in this question to the community as it relates specifically to programmers. I'd think that handling this issue on a resume is career-specific. Also, I've found similar questions on the site:
Referring to freelance marketplaces as evidence of the experience for a potential full-time employer
How to write freelancing in resume for programmers job
In any case, I don't think it should be closed. It should be migrated to The Workplace or Freelancing.
