Contractor Resource Area: Making the Move to Contracting

As a continuation of our series on contracting, this week we’ve created a rundown of what we think are the most important things to consider before making the move. These are based on our experiences working with permanent employees making the leap to contracting, and seasoned contractors talking about their journeys. By the end of this article, you should have had a few of the most glaring questions about contracting answered and have an idea of whether it’s the right time to make the move.

In this we cover:

• Am I worth it?
• Industries that use contractors
• What skills are desirable in contracting
• What are the benefits?
• What are the challenges
• Can I afford it?
• Will it be boring?

Check out the whole article here!
