    I know I'm gunna get shot down..... but thinking about taking a perm role to get me through christmas and save me from spending all my savings.

    Question is....do I bother lumping all my recent contracts under my company name, so it looks like ive been a perm... or do I not bother and just put it like it is with each role listed separately.

    I'm thinking they will probably be hesitant to hire me as a perm as they know I will jump ship once the market picks up..so its best to lump all the contracts together?

    Cheers guys
    Personally, I would be honest and make up a very convincing reason for going permie - security, the cheap canteen saving money, pension, life choice and all of that rot.

    But, put all under yourco name so it is obvious you are not changing permie jobs every few weeks. A two line covering all firms kind of thing....
