I'm a freelancer but also right at the beginning of my career, so it's hard to know whether things are slow because of COVID or because I just didn't have a lot of momentum. But, I do have a call this afternoon with someone who cold-emailed, so that's encouraging.

Is this the end of an era for freelancers? No, I don't think so. But when money is tight I think people are a lot more careful about who they hire, so as someone else said, trust becomes more important in hiring, whether staff or freelancers.
