This partnership is the first of many Moonlighting will be bringing to market to save freelancers valuable time and money with a single sign-on solution.
"Over the past year, HireVibes has successfully built our token-based loyalty and rewards program using the EOSIO protocol," commented Yohann Calpu, Head of Community for HireVibes. "We are excited to work with Moonlighting and showcase their user profiles on our platform to help them get more work and earn more money."
