"So, what is freelancing?" you might think. Working as a freelancer implies working for yourself rather than for someone else. Self-employed freelancers are sometimes known as independent contractors.
Other organisations engage freelancers on a part-time or short-term basis, but they do not earn the same pay or have the same degree of commitment to any one company as full-time workers.
People are talking about freelancing more than ever before, thanks to the advent of the gig economy. That's because there are more freelancers today than ever before — according to a 2019 research by Upwork and the Freelancers Union, 57 million Americans freelanced in 2019.
According to the same report, 53% of employees aged 18-22 are unemployed.
