RICHMOND, Va., June 9, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Moonlighting, a
leading mobile on-demand hiring platform, today announced it has
partnered with Digital Turbine (Nasdaq: APPS), the #1 mobile
platform connecting operators and OEMs with mobile advertisers, to
accelerate the marketing of Moonlighting's app that connects new
job opportunities and business tools to Americans whose businesses
or jobs have been adversely affected by COVID-19's impact on the
economy.
In an effort to help displaced workers find jobs,
Moonlighting recently announced access to its jobs database,
and business management tools is free until further notice. The
company's searchable jobs database features more than two million
gig, contract, part-time, freelance and independent work
opportunities, including more than 200,000 work-from-home jobs.
Key to the partnership, Digital Turbine will make available
Moonlighting's Android app on select mobile devices in communities
most affected by COVID-19. Digital Turbine's broad reach and
leading technology platform enable brands and app developers to
engage users through highly effective on-device media. Turnkey
placement on newly activated devices provides easier, one-stop
access and scale not available with other platforms.
"Helping people whose jobs have been impacted by COVID-19
quickly find work is now our mission," said Jeff Tennery, Moonlighting's CEO & Founder.
"By creating unique opportunities for users to discover content
directly on devices, Digital Turbine's platform delivers a better
user experience, unlike traditional media which is often noisy and
inefficient."
"I'm pleased to work together with Moonlighting to increase
awareness of their app that assists those in need with job listings
and support tools to quickly post gigs and help others find work,"
said Matt Tubergen, EVP of Digital
Turbine Media. "Our platform engages users directly on device—to be
discovered when they want and how they want. It's simply a more
direct and expedient route for getting apps directly in the hands
of end-users."

Moonlighting has grown to serve more than 800,000 independent and
freelance workers. It has also been featured in more than 150
