Abstract

What’s the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear the word “freelancing”? Have you ever thought of sitting at home and testing out apps/websites? Is it possible to be a student as well as earn? Yes, it is possible. Freelancing is the current global trend that can not only be used to earn income but can also be used to gain a lot of skills which are required to survive in this current “Software Testing” community.

In this presentation, I will be giving you the basics on how you can start your career as a freelancer, tips and tricks to succeed in this field and what all things you need to avoid if you want to excel in this field.
