00:13Friends, as a freelancer, emerging trending skills change in every freelance marketplace.
00:19Now in 2020, there are some skills that will be in demand.
00:24I am repeatedly asked this question on my social media, on Digiskills, everywhere, as an instructor, as a freelancer who has been doing it for over two decades.
00:33Sir, what are the most in demand skills?
00:35Remember, the most in demand skills are those which are your own skills.
00:40That is, if you acquire a skill, it is your demand.
00:45This will be related to you.
00:48But with my observation and experience, I would like to discuss with you some emerging skills that have been going on for years.
00:56Number one, virtual assistant.
00:58Now why did I name it virtual assistant?
01:00Whether you make a gig on Fiverr, or bid on Upwork, or bid on Guru.com, or freelancer, or any other freelance marketplace.
01:08This is the skill that does not require a degree.
01:11It only requires practice.
01:14Virtual assistant, in my opinion, stays on the top.
01:17After that, there is writing and editing.
01:19There is a lot of demand for writing.
01:21Whether it is related to thesis, whether it is related to course material.
01:27Whatever it is, whether it is a book, a pamphlet, a booklet, whatever the publication is, there is a demand for writing in it.
01:35Then, graphic designer.
01:37This order was created by me, so don't worry.
01:40I have been recording this video since 1999 and in the coming times.
01:47This freelance skill will remain.
01:49That is why I used the word forever.
01:51Graphic designer will always be in demand.
01:53Spreadsheet.
01:54You don't need rocket science.
01:56You just need to learn how to play with Excel, learn its commands, learn its basic functions.
02:04So you will automatically…
02:06Macros, etc.
02:07You can automatically excel.
02:09Customer service.
02:10There are a lot of websites.
02:11There are a lot of businesses in America, especially in the West.
02:15They need support staff.
02:17You can fill in support staff as a customer service.
02:21Video creation, which is called online video creation.
02:25This is in demand.
02:26Someone has to edit their video, someone has to create a video, whiteboards and so forth.
02:31Then, relational databases.
02:33It is self-explanatory that you should have the programming skills of relational databases.
02:40Accounting and bookkeeping.
02:44DigiSkills is running a course on QuickBooks.
02:47I can say with confidence that if you are interested in finance and numbers,
02:52you should take up accounting and bookkeeping.
02:56Learn QuickBooks.
02:58The best instructor has taught you.
03:00After that, you will see how you succeed.
03:03The last two are relatively difficult, but they are in high demand.
03:10Especially, blockchain development, where you have to make tokens,
03:14related to coins or related to blockchain stamping.
03:19This is in high demand in the outside world.
03:21And finally, low-code development.
03:23These are jobs related to basic coding.
03:26Maybe HTML can fill it in.
03:29Or if you want to write a program, you can learn this skill.
03:34None of these skills contradict each other.
03:40They do not counter-match or contemplate.
03:43None of these skills are considered a degree.
03:46And you can work without a degree.
03:48None of these skills do not tell you the importance of a full-time degree.
03:53They do not emphasise that if you do not learn this skill, you will succeed.
03:57This means that I want to establish a relationship between skill and degree.
04:02The skills that I have pinpointed for you on the screen,
04:07you do not need a degree for that.
