If you are a Marketer and travel to several locations daily to market your companies services, can your mileage be claimed as a job-related expense when not reimbursed.

W-2 employees cannot deduct job-related expenses on a federal return. Job-related expenses were eliminated as a federal deduction for W-2 employees by the tax laws that changed for 2018 and beyond. Your state tax laws might be different in AL, AR, CA, HI, MN, NY or PA.

If you live in a state that lets you deduct job-related expenses, the information will flow from your federal return to the state return, so enter it in Federal>Deductions and Credits>Employment Expenses>Job-Related Expenses

Yes, but job related expenses for W2 employees are no longer deductible federally under the TCJA. You may be able to deduct your job related expenses on your state tax return.
