About FreelanceStudents
The Idea
FreelanceStudents is the easiest and most effective way for businesses and private individuals (“employers”) to connect with talented, enthusiastic, and ambitious students for one-off jobs, short-term projects, and internships. From artists and photographers to programmers and writers, many students use FreelanceStudents daily to find their next opportunity. By recruiting students, employers can make substantial cost savings. To make this possible we’ve created an easy-to-use platform where a simple job ad can be placed online very quickly.
So in a nutshell employers use FreelanceStudents to find, hire and work with talented and ambitious students. Students use FreelanceStudents to meet employers, gain work experience, produce quality work and get paid for doing what they do best.
Wait there’s more - we also see FreelanceStudents as a place where students can find informal work opportunities. What does that mean? Well, we can also find you casual and irregular means of generating additional cash like participating in market research or even making a brief TV appearance. Easy money - and it beats the grovelling call to the parents when the cash is low.

The Blog
We know that many students want to gain a better understanding of the world of work, which is why we created a blog. The blog articles will provide useful and candid career advice along with interviews, reviews and general light relief from brain-intensive lectures. But this isn’t a one-way street. We’re looking for students to submit articles and share their experiences too. There’s more information on article submissions here.
Awards
We like to think that we’re doing a good job here, so it’s nice when others think so too! We were chosen as a 2010 Smarta 100 Small Business Winner and also picked up a NatWest Special Business Award.
Our Vision
FreelanceStudents is an ever-growing community and we are excited and positive about the future.
“The vision is to build FreelanceStudents into a community that helps students and graduates bridge the gap between university life and the world of work, by providing resources and opportunities that empower them to fulfil their career aspirations”
