Hi All,
It's my first post so I thought I'd say hello and pick your brains.
I've been interested in contracting for quite some time now but stuck with permie rolls due to the need for a regular wage (mortgage/kids). I'm about ready to jump but found myself hesitating recently. I'd be interested in how forum members made the transition to contracting and how they find it compared to permanent roles.
I'd also like to hear what any of the IT folks think the UK/Ireland contracting market will look like over the next few years. I'm SQL Server DBA in it's various versions for around 7/8 years now. I'm pretty confident I can get a 6 / 12 month contract relatively quickly but I'm not sure about longer than that.
Thanks
