Hi everyone, I was thinking someone here might be able to help. I'm looking to start my contracting career toward the end of this year, however I'm a little confused/concerned about the whole outlook of the contracting scene.
By the end of the year I'll have around 4-5 years IT experience mainly in infrastructure support positions working heavily with Citrix/Microsoft technologies. I have basic SC and industry qualifications for Microsoft/Citrix systems.
I read stories that people believe IT contracting is going to die out within the coming years but I also read stories that suggest the industry is fairly robust.
I guess my main concerns at the moment are, what do you think the long term outlook for IT contracting is and wether or not I need to start looking into a different technical field e.g developing... or maybe give up the hope of contracting all together! Any thoughts appreciated.
