Who’s applying for these open contracting and freelance jobs? Leeby says many of the applicants are retirees looking to earn a little more money later in life and seeking flexible hours. “I think as we come out of this recession, we’ve seen a new normal in what’s happening in the workforce today,” Leeby said. “When you look at the existing, aging workforce, they’re moving into retirement. Retirees are relatively young and still looking for access to work.”
