The year 2020 demonstrated that no business, no matter how powerful or well-known, can be completely immune to the external environment.
According to research and data, successful businesses in the fields of tourism, air travel, film industry, catering, and hospitality suffered during the coronavirus outbreak, and 1.95 million small and medium-sized businesses were shut down, according to tass.ru. The coronavirus has wreaked havoc on industry and the economy throughout the world. Life on the earth has come to a halt, and billions of people have been forced to seek refuge in their houses. Many people will lose their jobs as a result of this, and no one has canceled their expenses: bills, rent, hunger, and loans have not been canceled. Many individuals lost their jobs and had to hunt for new ones, but other businesses found the lockdown regime, in which people are told not to leave their houses until absolutely necessary, to be quite profitable. The demand for grocery delivery from retailers has soared throughout the outbreak. Over the last two years, the overall number of moviegoers in the globe has climbed by 18 percent, while the number of Netflix customers has increased by 47 percent (according to bbc.com). In addition, Netflix said on April 22 that between January and March, the firm added approximately 16 million new members.
This situation terrified individuals since one of the most important things to them are stability. As a result, many people turned to freelance. One of the most rewarding ways to work from home, knowing that no matter what happens outside the house, people had and will have a job. Not only will save time on the commute but will also have the freedom to arrange work around other daily activities. The number of new freelancers in Russia has grown by 76% over only the year: graphic designers, bloggers, translators, interpreters.
In today’s world, I see the future at work remotely. Moreover, I work remotely, due to the fact that part of the day I need to study and physically not able to go to work. Today people choose freelance to feel more comfortable for mental reasons, to work from another country, save time and save their health.
Freelancing is not about changing the work field, it is about a possible transition to another working mode: people are looking for earnings on a part-time or shift schedule wherever they are and whoever they are. It is about changing the environment around people and helping to adapt to new living conditions in nowadays world.
Yes, freelancing is a very tempting field of activity, but it is quite unstable in terms of income.
