    Same happened to me in January. When it became apparent that I've only ever contracted .... the three interviewers looked at me like I had just shat on their new carpet.

    I felt like I was supposed to apologise for having an independent and entrepreneurial streak.

    [That place interviewed 12 people and rejected all.]

    I would happily take a decent contractor over a perm plodder any day. They tend to have a bit more nous and get up and go (in my experience), Exactly the people I want to work with.

      Unfortunately, the perception seems to be that they will get up and go....
