Freelancing is the name of the game in 2023. Why would you work for one company, having to deal with demanding colleagues and projects they assign to you, when you can work from your own house (or from a sunny beach, cozy co-working space, or whatever office fits you), choose only the projects you like to do, and take on just as much workload as you feel ready to handle? Toptal and other freelancing platforms offer you this freedom. You just have to demonstrate your skills, and get onboard one of the platforms.
