#026: A Hiring Manager Explains What He Looks for in a Freelancer

We spend a lot of time on this show talking about how find and land better-paying clients, how to work smarter and how to develop the mindset you need to succeed in this business.

You've heard from me and from fellow freelancers. You've heard from industry experts, well-known speakers and authors.

But I've yet to bring on someone who hires freelancers. Someone who can speak to what it's like evaluating freelance talent and working with us.

That's what this episode is about. In today's show, you'll hear from Craig Chappelow from the Center for Creative Leadership (CCL), a non-profit leadership and training organization headquartered in the U.S.

Craig has hired—and continually works with—dozens of freelancers in multiple disciplines. And in this candid interview, you'll get his perspective as a client on what it's like to find, hire and fire solo professionals.
