This episode's question came in via email. Nico works as a designer for a company right now, and he wants to start freelancing on the side and build a business. He said, “I was thinking of creating a portfolio, including the projects I've completed in my current company, but in a fictitious way (use different names, organizations, etc.) Also, state that this is a fictional project but that the process and outputs are the same. Do you think this will work to close deals? If you were a company that would be reviewing my portfolio, would you think that I'm experienced or just someone trying to fool you?” Note: we are not attorneys, and we will not even touch the question of if it's something legal or not. We are not providing legal advice in any way. This type of advice should be provided by a certified professional, and we are not. This episode was originally aired in July 5th, 2022.
