Contracting straight out of uni. Is it doable?

[SueEllen]

You need a game plan and choose your best options.

Imagine the choice;

Permie role at Google with grad training working out of London.

Contract role at Krometech Solutions ltd with no training or any perks working out of Bolton.

If you know anything about Google you wouldn't go there to do a grad role.

You are better of working for a small unknown company in Swindon or Slough who makes you do everything with some person who mentors you, or a larger company which has a established graduate training but moves you around the country every 6 months.

Obiously you need to learn your craft - but ask yourself - what looks better on a CV?
