Should I include my professional employment history?

I put my corporate job history and now I'm not sure if it's safe and just put general information relevant to what I offer or I just leave it blank?

You may include it or not include it.

The choice is yours.

 

I believe that most freelancers include it.

This history - jobs that are pertinent to the type of work you want to do on Upwork - demonstrate to clients that you have experience.

 

Is it safe?

I don't know. People have included their employment history on their resumé or C.V. for over a hundred years. It's not an unusual thing to do.

Hello Maria,

If you think you have shared something sensitive in Upwork, then I would suggest removing them. If I were you, I wouldn't share any sensitive information. I only shared some general information here but those were enough to prove my expertise.

 

But obviously include every possible experience of yours hiding all the sensitive stuff. 

 

Hope you got the solution.
