Founder of service to search for professionals Karoli Hindriks Jobbattical published in his blog on Medium material that the standard working day is hopelessly outdated. According girls, the development of the Internet has opened up new opportunities for young people at the choice of profession - now anyone can become a freelancer or start their own businesses and work as much as you need and want, not "hatch" in the office required by contract hours.
This approach still seems to many something new - Hindriks recognized that after the founding of his company to hire employees on a standard work schedule, because it is predictable and comfortable for the majority of candidates. However, the changes that have occurred in the industry technological projects after the projects such as Google or Facebook, was forced to reconsider its strategy of hiring - the new company could offer talented employees more flexible terms, so to retain key members of the team has become more difficult.
As a result, the value of talent has increased - and realize it as the company and the employees themselves. LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman said that "the company can no longer afford to hire staff for a lifetime." At the same time there was a boom of freelancing - appeared exchanges like Elance-Odesk, and Freelancer.com, which changed the perception of how people should work. Only in base Elance-Odesk now four million workers - and the entire market of remote work is estimated at $ 5 billion by 2018.
According to the research company Intuit, in 2020 to 40% of the working population of the US will be freelancers, contractors and temporary workers. People working in the company did not cease to be regarded as unreliable and a layer of low-paid employees who can not be trusted with serious business. In 2020, the labor market will be run by representatives of the new generation, who value their time and are able to dispose of them.
Hindriks sure that the working day "nine to five" thing of the past, and employees will be judged not by the amount of time spent in the office, and the volume of work done. In her view, the speed of these changes will depend on how quickly to new realities can adjust CEOs.

Despite the fact that Hindriks cites the company to influence change in the labor market, the social network Facebook, its founder Mark Zuckerberg is a supporter of the traditional approach to the organization of working time. Byron Lee, the designer of the company, whose desk at Facebook headquarters is located near the site of Zuckerberg, in a thread on Quora told that the billionaire appears in the office five days a week and spends at work at nine or ten o'clock.
Sometimes Zuckerberg goes on business trips, but Byron said that the meeting with the partners often take place in the office Facebook.
