LinkedIn expands freelance marketplace with Profinder

Linkedin Profinder
A recent report by Intuit suggests that by 2020 (that’s just a few years away folks) more than 40 percent of the American workforce – approximately 60 million people – will work as freelancers, contractors, and temporary employees.
 
With an increasing number of people jumping into the freelance talent pool, LinkedIn recently expanded its professional services marketplace dubbed ProFinder.
 
The service, which LinkedIn began piloting a year ago, but only recently made available nationwide, allows those who are looking to hire to cast a wide net by simply answering a few questions. It starts by asking “What service do you need?” Categories range from accountants to lawyers, graphic designers to public relations consultants. The questions further drill down into more specifics to help you find the right person. For example, if you’re looking for a writer do you want a technical writer, a grant writer or a blogger?
 
Once you narrow it down, click on the “Get Free Proposals” button and you’re off.
 
LinkedIn looks to find the best person suited for your request from area freelance professionals, like myself, and sends the recommendations to you.
 
For those who are looking to get hired, Profinder also helps you to get clients. Click here to get started.
