About this Event
While landing a full-time job is the primary goal for many early-career professionals, freelance work can be an equally viable and fulfilling pathway—particularly for careers in media. Hear from independent contractors and other freelance media workers about the risks and advantages of self-employment and how to know when you’re ready to go it alone.
