As for contracting long term, staying perm would be safer, especially with the security blanket of redundancy or compromise payments if you're canned.The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't existComment

Are you prepared to travel up and down the country to stay in contract? Understand and deal with everything to do with contracting? Spend periods of time on the bench not earning? Can you handle yourself professionally on site and not just think you are an employee... There is much more to contracting than just a bit of extra money.'CUK forum personality of 2011 - Winner - Yes really!!!!Comment
