Permanent to contractor switch ... strategy question

[vwdan]

So if I did decide to just hand my notice in - what's the best way to spin it?
a) Just say I'm going contracting
b) Make stuff up

I told them straight up what it was all about - ended up having a meeting with the MD where I passed on some possible dayrates for future project work. I've managed to slot in a week with them next week, as it happens, which was nice.

Permanent to contractor switch ... strategy question

I've just started a contract off the back of a 6 week notice period (negotiated down from 3 months). Client was happy to wait. They're still looking for more, AFAIK, so if you can get to Canary Wharf and know a bit of Java, I can put you in touch. Also do a couple of days a week from home which may work well for you.
