This weeks lecture was given by Hellen McCarron and Claire Butler from the University of Lincolns Career service. This lecture set out the world of freelancing and how to be successful as a freelance and how to freelance correctly so that you are paying the right amount of tax, national insurance etc. Being that i already freelance I understood most of the lecture, however, there were parts that I didn’t know such as the benefits that can come from hiring an accountant and the rates of tax that you need to pay for the amount of income that you receive.
Ultimately I found the lecture useful however I did understand most of the lecture and agree with them saying that freelancing is a viable way of entering the industry, i just personally believe that for me a full or part-time contract would be ideal and this is what i am aiming towards.
