Certainly (2).

When I started contracting, I passed off my 16 months at the last permie role as a contract.

(2) (assuming it was a company you actually want on your CV). Come clean (3) if you're pushed for details, but you're unlikely to be.

returning to contracting

I recently stopped contracting to take a permie job in Sweden. I have since decided that I made the wrong decision though and would like to return to contracting. I have only worked a couple of months so would you:

1. Omit the current job from CV and just leave the last contract.
2. Put the current job on CV with the expectation that they will think this a short term contract. If they ask, then say it was short term.
3. Tell the truth if they ask and say it didnt work out.
