Include Work Projects from Past Employer on Portfolio?

[angelina-hippen]

Hello! New Freelancer here 🙂 I am attempting to get my profile looking great and am wondering what the opinion is on whether I should include past work completed with former employer? I worked on numerous marketing campaigns/clients... would be nice to have couple case studies but an unsure about including since it wasn't necessarily freelance projects. TIA!

Honestly, I can't see how you could do otherwise and I certainly did and still do talk about past work.  A client will want to know that you can do what it is they need and you will need some evidence for it.
