Hey all,
I imagine I won't get a positive response; however, here goes!
I have been an academic for 7-years and have a decent amount front-end-dev experience. Not just from an academic perspective, but also on several freelance projects.
I am thinking about moving back into an industry focused job; however, the flexibility of contracting seems appealing. However, the extent to which contracting is appealing rests on a answers to a few questions:
1. On the face of it there seems to be a lot of front-end-dev contracts (e.g., on the jobs boards). However, are they extremely competitive to get?
2. Would it be realistic to get mostly WFH contracts? I can't stomach the idea of sitting in the IT department of a big company.
Thanks in advanced and sorry if I am being naive. However, I am just trying to get a feel of what it is like out there.
