|
## Description
|
|
|
|
|
**Gig Connect** is a platform that allows users to find short-duration, small-scale work opportunities (“gigs”) within their local area — such as **plant-watering, grocery pickup, local tutoring, household fixes, dog-walking, item shifting**, and more.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Unlike traditional job portals, this platform focuses on **quick, task-based, hyperlocal gigs** instead of long-term employment.
