As the work world continues to evolve and become an increasingly free agent economy, job seekers are faced with new challenges and opportunities. Whether you’re looking for greater work/life balance or need to earn some income during a job transition, figuring out how to thrive as a contingent worker or freelancer can be valuable. In this interactive program, participants will learn more about “portfolio careers” (careers where income is generated from a combination of part-time, freelance, temporary and other ventures) and how to take the first steps to define their own product offerings and marketing plans.
