- More than half of Gen Z professionals are choosing freelance careers over traditional jobs, according to a recent Upwork survey. Upwork Research Institute Managing Director Kelly Monahan, PhD, joins Wealth! to discuss this figure and other trends she's seeing among the generation.
"Gen Z is really redefining what it means to have a long-term career today," Monahan says. As more individuals choose full-time freelance work, she explains that they increasingly seek control over their careers as corporate layoffs accumulate.
"What they're asking business leaders to think about is talent access over talent acquisition," She adds, explaining that Gen-Zers want agency over the projects they work on and the companies they work for. She also says many young people dislike corporate cultures, feeling they cannot be themselves.
Monahan's advice to freelancers is "making sure that you're learning and reskilling. In order to freelance, you're in control of your career. Make sure you're staying on top of the trends and continuing to skill with what's in demand today."

With rising costs of education, I don't blame them. 🤷🏻♂️
It’s the haves and have nots
Thats because you have to put out 3000 applications have 10 years experience and a college degree to get a low chance at a minimum wage fast food or call center job...and WE SHOULD BE GRATEFUL FOR THAT?
I rather be a bum then apply for a job in this job market. I can't believe companies get any applicants at all anymore its auch an obvious waste of time
Future generations 😊
Do you think Revux will pump before XRP?
My top picks for bull run are DOT, FIL, and SOL. And best ICO to invest is Revux, huge potential.
Clearing out all my Alts going into BTC and Revux only, maybe a little BNB and SOL
We have no choice! Its not just "flexibility"-that's a lie!
Hii
I am Ashok
Revux keeps popping up in my crypto circles. Seems like a rising star!
Dude, you need to get Revux NOW!
More opportunities for the old heads in the workforce and those seeking to come out of retirement 😅
And they’ll be paying higher health insurance..
There is 0 chance this is true.
