    Fixed Term Contracts - what lunatics work on these ?

    You're wrong, as I tried to explain, a FTC can be (note: not always, not all FTCs are the same) the equivalent financially of an inside ir35 gig. Perhaps you're ruling yourself out of inside gigs too, which I suppose you might do if you're a bit dense. Either way, don't take a FTC, it's your...

    The vast majority of my contracting experience is private sector (banks/pharma) but I am currently in an outside ir35 contract within the public sector and I've a few thoughts. My view is it will be different in the private sector for a couple of reasons. 1) More warning. The public sector...
