General Catalyst, Greylock, and CRV are among the investors backing HR tech companies helping temporary workers and free agents find jobs.
The demand for flexible working arrangements has increased, as has the number of companies relying on contract labor. As a result, instead of holding full-time jobs, millions of workers are contracting out their labor through part-time, temporary, seasonal, or leased work arrangements.
