Company Description
A few years ago, we started Moonlighting to help empower people everywhere to pursue the career they always wanted, to lead a better life, and to do work that they truly love. We wanted to create a free and open marketplace that gives everyone a shot at getting discovered and building their own workplace independence. This mission has turned into a movement, spreading quickly throughout the country and soon, across the globe. Moonlighting removes the middleman between employers and freelancers, connecting them directly to empower on-demand employment. In addition, it offers a suite of powerful SaaS tools that simplify communications and small business accounting. With the upcoming blockchain integration, Moonlighting will decentralize worker profiles (including reviews, recommendations, education, licensing credentials) and allow freelancers to port their profile to any employment marketplace in the gig economy.
