My first/current gig is a six month with a possible extension. Not to complain, but so far I'm doing less than I did in many months of gardening leave in my last perm job. Given the rate I'm being paid to read and post on this forum I'm amazed I'm still here. The job is very much within IR35: not so much a project as filling a seat and doing whatever work comes my way just like the perm guy sitting next to me.
So yeah, I'd definitely take a contract of three months or less if it was an actual project. If it was backfill for someone on holiday/secondment it would depend on the client/environment, but I still wouldn't automatically say no if nothing more appetising was on offer because there's a chance it could lead to something more with the same client.
