We've put together a handy guide:
| | | - Is your company looking for skilled freelancers? Freelance Business Month is the best way to reach a wide variety of independent professionals during the entire month of October. Our partners at Recorem will match your vacancies to the most suitable candidates. Buying one Corporate ticket for the event will allow you to post an unlimited amount of jobs and achieve a low cost per hire.
| | | - Are you a freelancer looking for your next project or a job? Freelance Business Month will offer you exclusive work opportunities during our event, available only to the attendees, as well as get feedback on how your skills compare to other applicants'. All this - powered by Recorem.
| | | The freelance community is much more diverse than the blue-collar workers like delivery drivers and construction workers. Professionals like doctors, marketers, developers and consultants also participate in the "Gig Economy", but their specific needs and requirements are too often lost when they are grouped together with their blue-collar colleagues. Malt wants this to change. They are launching a survey to raise the voice of white-collar freelancers and find out how they see themselves and what challenges they face. For this they need your help - share your opinion by filling their survey and assist them in painting a portrait of the while collar freelancer. The deadline is 30 September, so hurry up and share your experience! | | | Hire smarter and faster with Charipickers | | | Our partners Charipickers assist HR, IT- and Procurement managers to set up or optimise their external hiring processes and implement new margin models for better costs. They are strong believers in the Donut economy - a circular economy that reinvests in society. It guides towards sustainable business with respect for planetary and human boundaries. First, Charipickers invests in society themselves by supporting various projects and organizations in which they believe. In addition, they ensure that their customers hire in a sustainable manner and pay attention to ethical work. And for customers who want to do something extra for society, Charipickers have innovative incentive models that enable them to work out social projects together. | | | We are looking for speakers for Freelance Business for Software Developers
