If you don't "need" the extra cash it sounds like your swaying towards contract 2
Nice to be in the position of being able to pick and choose though
After talking to the company secretary (my mum ) decided on contract 2. Got into this game to work abroad a bit more which is what it will let me to do. Still 12.5% more than my last gig so we are all happy.
Whys chosing a contract so hard.....I mean it should be easy. Most money wins.....
This is going to take a while.
Contract 1: Business Analyst
Rate: X
Loc: Sheffield
For: 22 weeks
Not in an industry that I want but the contract is longer and it pays more. However no contract has any guaranteed lengths etc.
Contract 2: Data Analyst
Rate: X - 10%
Loc: Welwyn Garden City (wonder if you can guess who its for!!!)
For: 12 weeks (chance of extension)
Going back to a Coy I did work for a year ago (different department). Loved it get to see the project I started to completion (sort of). Get to travel alot of eastern Europe. Reckon the lack of rate could be made up as a lot of travel means no miles for me and hotels paid for by client, other role have to pay for this out of the rate.
