In this episode of The Freelancers Tea Break, we delve into whether new graduates can successfully transition to freelancing. We discuss the benefits such as lower financial commitments, up-to-date knowledge, and the ability to take risks. We also cover potential challenges like limited professional experience and smaller networks. We offer practical advice on building a portfolio, starting part-time freelancing, and exploring different freelance opportunities. Additionally, we introduce the Graduate to Freelancer course, designed to guide graduates through the freelancing journey and provide flexibility in career choices.
