Hi There,
I was working at home for 5 years as an Full Timer in IT before making my move over to London in January, I got hired immediately and settled for a full time position over here, earning approx > 65k a year. I thought at the time this was good money to be permanent and the job etc is easy going.
But after 6 months over here, I now realise, that taking a full time position may not have been the best option.
My reasoning
· I am young 26 years old. I have a mortgage in Ireland that is funded for next 18 months so i don’t have any worry about this.
· When I return back to Ireland, I have a position available for me.
·I don’t want to stay here too long as I’m pretty much a home bird.
I’m wondering is it time I hopped on the contracting bandwagon and started making as much as possible for my duration here, I am expecting hopefully a daily rate of 500 / 600 a day.
Also what’s the process for getting set up as contractor over here?
Any guidance would be great from anyone.
