I have been a freelance consultant for some local startups and signed the confidentiality terms. I realize if you work for a MC firm, you are not allowed to disclose your clients' name. But how about my situation as a freelancer? If not, will the experience on my resume look fake? Or how can I describe my freelancing experience on my resume without mentioning the clients' names? Thank you.

If you sign a confidentiality agreement, then you are committing a crime by disclosing the company names. Companies love to hire criminals.

I don't really see a problem mentioning a name in an interview if you're asked...this isn't legal advice though, so maybe talk to a lawyer real quick? Better $50 for half an hour of his time than losing a job.
Glad to help.
