Gig Driver Jobs in Tennessee

A Gig Driver plays a crucial role in the transportation industry by providing service through rideshare platforms like Uber, Lyft, or food delivery services like DoorDash. They are self-employed, using their own vehicles to transport people or goods from one location to another based on the needs of customers who book their services through a digitally based platform. They manage their own schedules, choosing when and where to work, and depending on the platform, they may also handle payments. Gig Drivers often supplement their primary income with this flexible work, although some individuals do work full time in this role.

Important skills for a Gig Driver include excellent driving skills, good interpersonal skills, punctuality, reliability, and an understanding of GPS and smartphone technology. They should have a valid driver's license, auto insurance, and a reliable vehicle. Some services may require additional certifications for instance, food delivery drivers may need to obtain a food handler's card. For rideshare drivers, a background check is typically required. Prior to becoming a Gig Driver, individuals might have roles in the service industry, as delivery drivers, or as drivers in another professional setting.
