Public Square
Career event presents freelancing opportunities

THE pandemic forced employers to allow their employees to work from home. The question now is why go back to the old way of working? Freelancing allows individuals to work from home, thus reuniting families, avoiding the pains of commuting as well as having unlimited financial opportunities. Bedrock Business Builders is at the forefront as Joe DiChiara CPA, CEO of Bedrock, realized the power and freedom freelancing offered. The first application of the concept was presented to his mom. She lived over 2,000 miles away and had a job with a local firm. She was taking care of her parents who could no longer drive. Between doctor appointments, shopping, and other activities, time was limited. God forbid there was a medical emergency. Working remotely provided freedom and peace of mind knowing she would always be there if needed. Joe, being an entrepreneur saw the enormous opportunity for individuals like her, all over the world.

Fast forward to the present, Joe and his team has brought their own version of remote accounting work, employing over 15 full-time individuals and four interns, as well as teaching US accounting and taxation to over 500 Filipinos. His courses have changed many lives, not only for the students but their loved ones.
