2020 is proving to be a bad year economically for Singapore and the rest of the world.
You as a self-employed professional might be scrambling to look for additional sources of income as your earnings dwindle.
We at DollarsAndSense Business totally understand your anxiety and thus we have compiled a list of 6 job sites offering freelance/flexible roles that you might have missed out in your job search.
#1 FreelanceZone
This site caters to freelance gigs and part-time work based in Singapore. Thus, unlike jobs that are based overseas, you need not worry about foreign exchange fluctuations and conversions when you apply for jobs on this site.

#2 FlexJobs

Jobs listed on this site will involve those with flexible schedules, freelance gigs, part-time, remote working and the like. The company also scans every single job on its site for reliability and legitimacy in order to prevent job ad scams and the like.

#4 Wantedly
Compared to other more conventional job sites that require job seekers to simply attach their resumes to apply, Wantedly approaches job seeking in a different way. Rather than only accepting resumes and candidate applications, job seekers can click the “Want To Visit” button in order for company staff to have a “casual chat” by email, phone or face-to-face. This approach is more personal and enables job seekers and companies to have pre-application conversations and interactions before deciding to proceed with the more formal processes of a job application.
While Wantedly does not only cater to freelance professionals like yourself, simply sieve out the freelance gigs available by typing “freelance” into the search keyword filter box.
Even if you are stuck at home now due to the COVID-19 pandemic, you still can arrange for an e-meeting for a freelance role with your desired company staff online after registering your profile here.
#5 Freelancer.com
This global site provides opportunities for freelancers in Singapore and beyond to get gigs in technical, creative and professional fields at mutually agreed upon rates between gig seekers and companies. A trick to differentiating your resume from the rest of the competition (as competition is high on this site) is to indicate any past certifications (or get new ones) on your profile. Sign up for an account right here.
#6 Facebook Job Groups
While Facebook groups are not technically a job site, the reality remains that these job groups based in Singapore can contain a treasure trove of part-time, freelance and remote gigs once you join them. The only downside is that you might have to exercise greater caution when sieving out real job ads from fake ones. All you would need is to have a Facebook account to be able to join these groups. An example of such a Facebook group would be “Internship, Freelance and Part-Time Jobs in Singapore” with over two thousand members.
