Today’s fast pace of life and multi-faceted responsibilities are a challenge for many, and people are looking for ways to balance work, family and hobbies. Rauno Kullas found the perfect solution in GoWorkaBit, Estonia’s largest portal for job vacancies and flexible working.<\/strong> GoWorkaBit allows for one-off job hires as well as applications to join an employer’s permanent team of flexible workers, the Hub. This way you get all the benefits of permanent work, but you still have flexibility over the number and frequency of your working days. It’s great for people who want to do extra work, or don’t want to or can’t commit to full-time work or long contracts. <\/p>\n\n

Why GoWorkaBit and flexible working?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

Rauno is convinced that flexible working is the best solution for his lifestyle. \u201cI’m a believer in flexible working because it gives more time for family, school and hobbies,\u201d he says. The GoWorkaBit platform allows him to choose when and where he works. The process is simple: after registering as a GoWorkaBit user, you can browse through the job offers on the platform. The description of each job offer clearly shows when and where the job will take place, as well as the job content and remuneration. For Rauno, it was important to find something for the summer, and when he saw the Foxway job ad, he decided to apply immediately. \u201cFoxway’s offer immediately caught my eye – it was exactly what I was looking for,\u201d he adds. <\/p>\n\n

A normal day at Foxways – technology and nostalgia go hand in hand<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

Rauno’s day at Foxways is full of technical challenges and interesting adventures. His main task is to test different smart devices using special diagnostic software. \u201cThe job requires both precision and systemic thinking – you need to be a quick problem solver,\u201d explains Rauno. Although the work is technical, it also brings nostalgia. \u201cIt’s cool to see how equipment has evolved over time and sometimes you get a nostalgic feeling when you see older models,\u201d he adds. <\/p>\n\n

The flexibility of the workshops allows Rauno to focus on what he loves every day – exploring new equipment, developing his skills and solving problems. He also enjoys the company of colleagues from different backgrounds and experiences, which makes for a varied and inspiring working environment. \u201cIt’s a diverse and cool team – there’s always something new to learn,\u201d she says. <\/p>\n\n

Benefits of flexible working – master of your own time<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

For Rauno, flexibility is the biggest advantage of working through GoWorkaBit. \u201cI can choose days where I can work on hobbies and personal projects or help my parents in the country,\u201d he says. GoWorkaBit’s Hub system allows him to easily adapt his work schedule so that he can devote enough time to family and leisure activities. When she finds shifts in Foxway’s posted schedules that fit her schedule, she can sign up for them right away. <\/p>\n\n

New skills and development from workamps<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

By working through GoWorkaBit, Rauno has also acquired new skills that he will be able to use in the future. \u201cI’ve learned how to solve problems quickly and efficiently,\u201d he says. In addition, the GoWorkaBit platform has helped him to develop confidence in new situations, as the platform’s workamps bring new challenges every time. \u201cThere’s no need to be afraid of new experiences – it may seem challenging at first, but if you commit you’ll always see results.\u201d <\/p>\n\n

Work-life balance – less stress, more quality time<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

This flexible way of working has also brought Rauno significant changes in his life outside work. \u201cI find more time for my loved ones and there is less stress,\u201d she says. Thanks to the GoWorkaBit system, he can maintain a better work-life balance, which in turn helps prevent burnout. \u201cIt’s made it easier to prioritise my life and to understand what’s really important,\u201d she adds. <\/p>\n\n
