This is a bit worrying... I take it this is not the general thinking in the ClientCo or AgencyCo market about contractors!!!
I saw a role advertised today for a WPF Senior developer in Milton Keynes.
It asks for moon from the potential candidate and offers shameful low rate.
Anyway the thing that got me really worried is this bit where they talk about the key requirements of the contractor
"You must boast a successful contract past (not lots of short term assignments)".
Sounds really sad reading up these words in the role.
So having short term contracts in the past is not seen as a successful contractor???
In a sense it sounds insulting!
As a matter of fact, this role itself is advertised only for 3-6 months , and they think its ok for them to advertise short terms ones, and expect candidates to have long contract past!!!
