However, independent workers are highly attractive professionals; by using a freelancer or contractor means you will be able to fill unpredicted openings quickly and with the right expertise. A vast majority of flexible workers are teamed with knowledge, training, and readiness to make changes for the next challenge. Companies who can quickly adapt to change will have the upper hand. Therefore, this could be the perfect choice to move many businesses through their current period of finding the right talent.  The independent work trend is one we can expect to continue through 2018.
