Changing Job Lanscape

The amount of time people spend in one job has been decreasing over the past few decades. Many factors go into the likelihood of staying with the same job for many years, such as personal decisions, field of employment, and the monetary value of your skill set.

Full-time jobs are getting harder to find, so many workers are seeking shorter-term jobs to increase their flexibility. The number of part-time and freelance workers is expected to grow every year.

Employers are hiring only when they need help and letting employees go as soon as they don't need that help, which is why short-term jobs are becoming more common.

Even in industries where people are hired for longer periods, employers are much more ready to cut the size of their workforce just as soon as things begin to look bad.
