Employer talent shortages are currently at a 10-year high, according to ManpowerGroup. At the same time, the “gig economy” is booming, and employers may ease these shortages by hiring independent workers.

Recruiters and employers may prioritize “gig” employees who are hired for a particular project for a set amount of time, mixing them with regular full-time employees.
