Newbie Contractor

[badger7579]

Hello guys,

I have decided to move into the world of contracting.

I have never done a contract before so what things to I need to do before I can start applying for contracts ?

ATM, I have signed up to a recruitment agency and they have setup afew interviews for me. They use umbrella companies to mange accounts. I am alittle concerned they might ask for 'certain' info of which I am unaware. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Ah bless..... Contracting is a lovely fluffy world where you get to set your own hours and get paid tulip loads for very little work...

Thanks guys.
I have been doing some reading and speaking too. The LTD route sounds enticing but I will probably do one or two umbrellas before considering setting up my own company.

I will continue reading and may have some questions so watch this space.

Seriously, you should be watching this space.

I doubt very much that you'll come up with a contracting related question that hasn't been asked (numerous times) on this forum before.

I doubt very much that you'll come up with a house price, what I had for dinner, climate change, word association, what car to buy, saw a were rabbit digging up a grave, how to get urine stains out of a duvet or SKA related question that hasn't been asked (numerous times) on this forum before.
