The summer months are an excellent time for employers to leverage on-demand talent online and tap into contractors with needed skills, while also presenting increased opportunities for freelance workers to build and develop relationships with new employers.   Despite the national unemployment rate recently edging up to 9 percent, oDesk experienced a record number of job postings on its site for the month of May. That figure was a 7-percent increase from the previous month, and has grown 81 percent since 2010.   Employers spent over $17 million in May while contractors worked over 1.6 million hours on oDesk.   --- Next: [Thanks Content Marketing!
