Job Advertised at Six Months Offered Three Months Instead

It could be worse. They could offer you 6 months then given notice at the 3 month point!

It could be worse. They could offer 6 months then send you packing day one for no reason.

The length of the contract is irrelevant in either the contract or the ad. The only thing that matters is, if there is work to be done on site.

Its a Statement of Work
