It always bugs me how Agents often as "when did your last contract finish?". What difference should it make if the answer is "yesterday" or "six months ago" ?
Do Agents/retruitment managers think badly of contractors who've been on the bench for a while? Surely someone who's well rested is better placed to provide a good service?
I ask because my plan is to semi retire by working one contract a year ie six months in a contract, six months for time to do other things.
But is this feasible? Or are the gaps on my CV going to be too restrictive?
Any thoughts? Anyone semi-retired in this way? Any tips?
