Data shows #freelancers are 2.2 times more likely to use #genAI tools. This makes them ideal for projects involving emerging technologies.

Still, companies should prioritize training their teams to stay competitive.

Looking for freelancers is not easier than looking for a full-time employee. It is less risky. Unless…

You skip due-diligence.
You don’t set up key documentation.

Then, most likely you’ll end up losing.
No matter if you're hiring from LatAm, US or anywhere.

The top challenges in hiring freelancers?

Communication, availability, and understanding the company's inner workings.

Too often, companies expect freelancers to dive in blindly, leading to frustration when things don't go as planned. Time to bridge that gap.

Starting a business is hard.
Finding a co-founder is hard.
Still, don't go through the journey by yourself.

@Camilala9 Hoy se me fue la luz de 10am a 2pm y no se me fue el internet ni un segundo. En el hypermarket por el Albán Borja ya no lo tienen pero vi que en Steren en Mall del Sol lo tenían hace un par de semanas y estaba en $40. Suerte 🤞

Finding new clients is ranked as freelancers' top challenge. If you're a freelance, what do you do to advertise your services?

Question to women in tech:

Do you enjoy women-only events (like meetups or pre-conference dinners) or is that something we don’t like to do?

Answer here or DM me. I wanna hear from you 💜
