The number of freelancers and independent workers<\/strong> keeps on increasing<\/strong>, and this, all around the world<\/strong>. Even if there are more freelancers in the USA,<\/strong> European countries and their labour legislation had to adapt to this new form of employment<\/strong>, which often goes with freedom<\/strong>. Generally, freelancers have an independent main activity<\/strong>\u00a0and a complement<\/strong> of a paid employment. Freelance work attracts jobseekers because it is possible to work from home,<\/strong> and without a boss<\/strong>, and this is especially why the number of independent workers is still increasing. companies like\u00a0Uber<\/strong>\u00a0are pioneers in freelance. In order to avoid problems and to get the most out of freelance work, many online communities<\/strong> have been created, especially to help companies<\/strong> find an independent worker, or for freelancers<\/strong> to find interesting projects<\/strong>. In this article, we will first learn more about the two online communities<\/strong> that make things easier for freelancers. We will then see other types of communities that help freelancers start their independent activity or protect themselves against the risks of their activities.<\/p>\n

How to find a freelancer<\/h2>\n

Freelancer.com<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"logo<\/h3>\n

Created in 2009, Freelancer.com<\/a><\/strong> is the world\u2019s biggest site dedicated to freelancing<\/strong>\u00a0and crowdsourcing<\/strong>, thanks to its number of users<\/strong> and especially thanks to the huge number of projects<\/strong> for freelancers the team posts per day. At the moment, there are more than 24,445,920 users<\/strong>, for almost 12,000,000 posted projects<\/strong>. Any independent worker is assured to find a very interesting project. It is a website only dedicated to independent work. It is one of the best to help\u00a0quickly find an activity.<\/strong> It is accessible for both freelancers looking for a project and companies, which have an urgent need in qualified workforce<\/strong>. It is very pleasant<\/strong> to navigate around the website, thanks to its\u00a0modern design<\/strong>, and it makes you want to work, especially because the projects are clearly<\/strong> presented.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Indeed, the website shows, which type of services<\/strong> companies can have, and above all, at what price<\/strong>. It is undeniably innovative, and it shows that the freelancers\u2019 profiles are of a high quality. As specialists in job boards and online recruitment, we recommend signing in on freelancer.com<\/strong> if you\u2019re an independent worker looking for an assignment in the IT<\/strong> sector (website creation, software, mobile applications) or in design, data science, sales and marketing, writing<\/strong> or even in product sourcing and manufacturing<\/strong>. With more than 13 million of visits<\/strong> and almost as many users, freelancer.com is made for companies that \u201cneed to hire\u201d. They can be sure to find a freelancer, and to get good results.<\/strong>\u00a0And that\u2019s the same for jobseekers, who wnt to adapt to the projects. Go check out\u00a0Freelancer.com<\/a><\/strong>!<\/p>\n

UpWork<\/a>\"logo<\/h3>\n

The main competitor of Freelancer.com, UpWork<\/strong>,<\/a> created in 2015, is another website fully dedicated<\/strong> to independent workers. It works a bit like freelancer.com, but we can\u2019t see the projects on the homepage. It is made more for companies<\/strong> and people looking for a freelancer.\u00a0The website is modern<\/strong> and very easy to use<\/strong>. It just seems to be focused on companies, but with more than 43 million single visitors<\/strong> last month, we are sure that jobseekers will find an assignment\u00a0that will suit them.\"how<\/p>\n

Everything is handled by the platform; <\/strong>that\u00a0means the publication<\/strong> of the projects, the recruitment and the hiring<\/strong>, the work progression and the payment<\/strong>. The website is available in the USA<\/strong>,\u00a0Canada<\/strong>, Australia<\/strong> and in the UK. <\/strong>\u00a0Those are the countries, which have the most independent workers in the world (officially). Upwork<\/a><\/strong> is also very good for all types of users, but we recommend it mostly for recruiters<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Co-working spaces<\/h2>\n

\"logo<\/p>\n

Freelancing is characterized by the fact that the workers may not have an office<\/strong>. It is true that some of them have to work from\u00a0home<\/strong>, and that it was their main reason to become an independent worker<\/strong>. However, others would prefer working in a place that makes them feel like they’re in an office, but without the boss<\/strong>! A productive environment where you can meet new people<\/strong>\u00a0who aren’t official colleagues.\"wework<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why I would like to tell you more about WeWork<\/a><\/strong>, a website available\u00a0worldwide,<\/strong> which allows independent groups of workers to find co-working spaces very quickly<\/strong>. Their mission is to offer these workers \u201ca working space, which will transform their day-to-day life<\/strong>\u201d. They welcome you in spaces ideally suited to develop new ideas<\/strong>. It can make things way easier for many workers. Go and check out their website<\/a><\/strong> to learn more!<\/p>\n

The American freelancers union<\/h2>\n

A very interesting McKinsey study on Forbes<\/a><\/strong> explains that there are more than 52 million freelancers<\/strong> in the leading country of independent workers, the United States<\/strong> (that is to say at least 1\/3 of Americans). With the current crisis at Uber<\/strong>, one of the references in independent work, as well as the continuing increase in the number of freelancers<\/strong> in the USA, it was important for the\u00a0Freelancers Union<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>to further increase its popularity, but it’s actually been around since 1995. \"freelancersIt is an online community of independent workers<\/strong> created to help each other. We can find very useful advice on social protection and insurance<\/strong>. The website is free<\/strong> for everybody and it is possible to donate<\/strong>. It gives a voice to freelancers. It is very useful and gives very interesting tips<\/strong>\u00a0to all freelancers in the USA, and it helps them avoid contract problems<\/strong> and other current issues with independent work.<\/p>\n

We hope that this article will help independent workers. Note that you can also check other job board\u00a0specialists<\/strong> in freelancing on the\u00a0Jobboard Finder<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
