Months of the year when I've started new contracts:
January
February
April
May
June
August
September
October
November.
I.e. The months where I can't remember starting a contract are March, July and December. (But I have been in contract discussion in those months)…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

In jobserve have more views and dowloads in January and June, probably because there is more 6 months contract renewals or new projects. In the other time of the year, it's probably that we are going to replacing someone.Comment
