4).Can I Do This in My Career Field?

Now that we have this relatively new invention called the internet, the concept of
freelancing has changed forever. Freelancers use to be a rare breed, mostly writers.
These days, however, a computer is used in the majority of jobs out there. Not only this
but telecommuting, or working away from the site of your employment, has also gained steam as of late.Small to even large companies are even looking to outsource to freelancers as a way
cutting costs. This saves huge costs from training and providing benefits to new
employees and, not to mention, saves the costs of keeping employees around the office.
Some of those layoffs you constantly hear about in the news don’t actually mean those
jobs are gone. Many of them just change forms from company hired to company
outsourced.

There are a wide range of career fields within the freelance industry. The following are
some of the major fields in freelancing, but by no means an exhaustive list:

• Administrative
• Architecture
• Consulting
• Engineering
• Finance/Accounting
• Graphic Design
• Legal
• Marketing
• Multimedia
• Programming & Technology
• Web Design/Development
• Writing/Translation
