Make 11760 Euros per month as a Freelancer More freedom in IT

The year 2020 was a year with many surprises and changes. I guess you guessed it, the biggest surprise was the COVID-19 pandemic due which many industries suffered but there were also industries that developed in an alert way and that adapted to the new conditions without too much effort.

For IT industry, the biggest challenge was moving employees from offices to the online environment, working from home. After this step, the mindset of corporate managers changed and they began to give more freedom to employees, becoming even more open to future collaborations.

Gradually, the big brands agreed to work with outsourcing companies outside their countries of origin, and even started hiring from abroad for their projects in full remote mode.

At the moment, the main problem in the IT industry is not the pandemic or the lack of projects, but rather the main problem is the lack of staff. There are many projects that cannot be developed due to the lack of staff in this field.

The effect of the snowball has made its presence felt and now the snowballs are constantly growing and it is possible to become a giant.

Lack of staff has helped freelancers grow. Some, in the IT industry, work on 2 or 3 projects at the same time, somewhere at 10-16 hours a day. The current conditions are very favorable for freelancers because many corporations have started working with contractors. In the online environment, Freelance online jobs are at your discretion.

It should be mentioned that freelancers work on hourly rates and these rates depend on the complexity of the project but also on the client's location. Thus, the best clients, such as those from Germany or Switzerland, end up paying 60 euros/h and clients with smaller budgets in Malta end up paying somewhere around 22.5 euros/h for a Senior position. Now it's perfect time to Discover Freelancer lifestyle.

After a discussion with an experienced freelancer who worked on two projects, I found out that he had come to charge approximately 70 euros/h in February. This rate was calculated for 2 full time projects where the daily tasks were solved in about 10 hours and not 16 as would have been normal. Per month will be approximately 11760 euro.
