Can freelancing represent a skill in your CV?

[vladdennis81]

Hello guys. Merry Christmas and a Happy new Year!
As I’m thinking about getting a part-time job this summer and I’m already getting a few orders, I guess and hope that when summer hits I’ll already be a decent or successful freelancer.

My question is, does freelancing add up as a professional experience in a CV? Do you think it would help? Did you add it to your CV?

Thanks,
Dennis
