Ask HN: Why are most remote job ads salaried full time roles?
Job boards like RemoteOK and We Work Remotely have plenty of job ads for developers. However, almost all of them are exclusively looking for full time employees.
Why are there no job ads for freelancers?
- verdverm 8y agoMost people want FTE, as they are typically more invested and can work overtime
- byoung2 8y agoIt takes a lot of effort to onboard someone so it is better to get one full time vs a bunch of part time or freelancers. For smaller operations that can't commit to a FTE freelancers are a great option. There is a monthly HN post "freelancer/seeking freelancer" where you can find these. I found a few gigs there where people were looking for 10 or 20 hours a week.
