How Bootcamp Grads Can Land Jobs in the Gig Economy

from The Career Change Podcast with Fexingo: Switching Fields, Bootcamps, and Reskilling · host Fexingo

In this episode of The Career Change Podcast, Lucas and Luna explore how bootcamp graduates can leverage the gig economy to build experience, earn income, and land full-time roles. They focus on a specific case: a bootcamp grad who used Upwork and Fiverr to secure a contract with a mid-size tech company that later turned into a permanent offer. The hosts discuss practical strategies like niching down, using project-based work to fill resume gaps, and converting gig clients into references. They also touch on how the gig economy has evolved as of June 2026, with more companies hiring fractional talent. With 38 prior episodes on career pivots, this fresh angle offers actionable advice for bootcamp grads looking to break into tech through contract work. #BootcampGrads #GigEconomy #Freelance #Upwork #Fiverr #CareerPivot #TechJobs #ContractWork #FractionalHiring #RemoteWork #PortfolioCareer #CareerChange #Reskilling #Bootcamp #FreelanceTips #JobSearch #Careers #FexingoBusiness Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
