The Gig Economy: Your Top Talent Resource

    HubStaff Talent, leading the way in the GIG economy.

    Whether it is ride sharing, spottily, car leasing or even travel time shares, GEN Y would rather rent then own.  New Theory first discussed this in our piece “Uberization of the economy” and how the current mindset effects all facets of the economy from taxes to employment contracts.

    With that said, welcome to the GIG economy.  It actually makes more sense for Millennials to work from gig to gig rather than have that so-called “stable” job.  The benefits of being an independent contractor have some major benefits:

    • Work from where and when you want – Freedom
    • Choose the projects you work on which keeps it interesting – Flexibility
    • Charge more for your services – Cash Flow
    • Tax benefits – Business Ownership

    If your willing to put up with fluctuations in income, then becoming an independent contractor may be for you.  We recently rolled out top tools for Millennial Entrepreneurs as a great starting point is HubStaff Talent.

    For Independent Contractors:

    Hubstaff has thousands of remote startups, software companies, agencies, and ecommerce businesses that are looking for talent just like you. Sign up for a profile so they can contact you directly for work they need done.  Signing up is easy as you can add your skills to your profile as well as list your hourly rate.  The nice thing is that the companies can find you directly and more importantly pay you directly.  It provides the opportunity for both freelancers and agencies to sign-up alike which differs from other large freelancer sites.

    For Companies Looking For Talent:

    Finding the right people is tough.  It is a very risky and expensive proposition.  HubStaff talent allows you to work with top talent while test driving them on a trial basis.  They also list the candidates country, experience and even a link to their own website so you can check out their work.  It’s the transparency that makes HubStaff Talent work which will set you up for success without having to commit to full-time contracted employees who hold a high carrying cost and may drain resources if they are not productive.

    The skills that are featured on the site include:

    • Development
    • Marketing and Sales
    • Design and Multimedia
    • Content Production
    • Database and IT
