You know how it is, sometimes jobs go well and sometimes they don't.
Usually, when a job goes well you expect to get more work out of the client, but (unfortunately) in the current climate this sometimes isn't possible.
So how do I write on my CV, "did a blinding job, finished four months work in two and then sat around drinking tea, um making useful enhancements to use up the remaining contracted time" and not make it look like "did a useless job and was not renewed"?
I've seen CVs with "won award for company's best coder" or words to that effect and my response is usually "yeah, so what"
(And I know that the client will give a good reference, but very seldom does anyone ask)
