Ask Can you freelance in a field where you have no formal education or degree?

[Edward22]

Freelancing is one of those areas where what you can actually do matters more than the certificate on your wall. Many successful freelancers never studied their field in a university. They learned through practice, online courses, YouTube videos, or just by doing the work and improving over time. Clients generally care more about seeing results than seeing your qualifications. That said, some fields do require specific certifications for legal or professional reasons. Have you ever freelanced in something you never formally studied, and how did clients respond to that?
