GIG WORKERS - You see them everywhere these days – some estimates show them at 34% of the U.S. work force. They are involved in ridesharing with Uber and Lyft, they’re homeowners offering rentals through Airbnb, you find them working on software development projects, they are musicians performing ‘gigs’, and pro tem healthcare professionals. These are only a few of the industries using independent self-employed workers.
Some gigs are short term, while others offer the option of longer commitments. Workers in the Gig Economy enjoy flexibility, variety, and the ability to truly pursue one’s career passion while earning money on their own schedules.

- Insight on how to prosper in today’s Gig Economy
