WHY THE GIG ECONOMY?

For many graduates it is difficult to find satisfying, well-remunerated full-time employment – particularly graduates from disadvantaged backgrounds or those who wish to enter an industry that does not have structured pathways from study to employment.

The gig economy offers:

  • the opportunity to gain relevant work experience that demonstrates your abilities and work habits
  • the opportunity to earn income on a flexible basis while you are still studying or looking for other forms of work
  • a solution for challenges of the future workforce where careers will be less linear, workers will expect more autonomy, and AI is likely to be highly disruptive.

Many people think that the gig economy only provides dead-end jobs that leave workers with insufficient income and minimal job satisfaction. But with the assistance of platforms like GradGigs, participants can develop meaningful and rewarding careers and build robust professional networks.
