Hi All,
Im 40 and thinking of going contracting after spending way to many years taking the easy coin from within the defence industry.
I have a good understanding of the full S/W life cycle and skills in Ada/C/C++/Fortran and for the last couple of years have been coding Gui's in C#.
My problem is confidence I have this knowledge across the board but want to concentrate on coding (prob C#, currently playing around with ASP/SQL at home to pick up some experience too).
Im concerned that my first contract may expect me to go 'balls out' from the moment I sit down. Is this the case in the non-defence world? Can someone allay my concerns or add to them? Is it possible to ease in gently?
