About Me: I'm
Jyothi. I have 5 years of working as
Oracle Developer. I've experience
working with big clients like Scope international of Banking domain, Windstream
of U.S telecom, and Medicaid for the state of UTAH Healthcare.
Here are the
reasons opting for Freelancing:
·
I need not travel 5 hours a day to reach my
cubicle, never have to worry on petrol price hikes, and my vehicle service
dates.
·
I need not think 100 times to request for a work
from home option. I can work from home all the time.
·
I need not stick to office lunch/break timings,
I can eat and work parallel. I need to
have to search for Jobs, need not worry about the contract periods.
·
I can choose my projects, can take up more
challenging works. Increase my professional skills and grow my network. I need not wait for job rotation to work on
other platforms. I can learn and I can work.
·
I would have an opportunity to know the whole
picture of the project and enhance my business knowledge. Rather fixing on part of the broken toy
knowing not where that piece would be fitted in.
·
High rate of National exposure, which has possibility
to learn about various customs and culture of different societies. A great opportunity to learn new skills, can
be away from office politics, and can have all the freedom that one can get in
a corporate environment (though you would miss all the team lunch and team
outings).
·
As women has so additional responsibilities like
cooking, cleaning and other things, I need not worry of my dressing,
accessories etc.
·
I have been using computer from the time when I
turned 5. So I'm good at using shortcut
keys and can work without mouse for navigation.
Also, I can type 60 words per minute which would aid my work completion to
be faster. Hence I used to complete my work
soon and have to wait at office for the clock to strike 7pm IST so that I can
make leave office, otherwise I've to face others as if I'm going on half a day
leave without permission. You don’t have
this problem when you become a freelancer.
·
Hence with this idea I searched through various
freelancing websites, later through online research, I had an understanding of
how Toptal works. Great to have
freelancers like Toptal (Software Engineers Community) which can fulfill the dreams of a professional tagging
them all together as freelancers (can also be called as toptalers J)
·
So, having said all these, the pros are higher
than the cons. Hence I’m eagerly waiting
to tag myself as a freelancer. God
willing. Waiting for the best to
happen.
