Originally posted by Dominic Connor View PostGiven that no one died as a result of my last article about contractors for The Register So you want to be a contractor? Well, here's how it works ? The Register I'm going to be doing more of the same, except not quite the same because the damned editor wants each article to be different.
So I'm interested in things of interest to contractors, wannabe contractors, pimps, managers of contractors and their wives.
Stuff like trends in demand, money and skills; tax crap; negotiation, how to spot good/bad contracts and good/bad contractors, style of fing.
The Reg is a mass market (7 million readers per month, 43 million hits) site, so whatever I write will get read.
Either stick stuff here, or email me at dominic dot connor at gmail
Skills needed: Bleeding radiators.
Trends in demand: Ordering sofa online
Good contractor: Who sends the invoice on time everytime.
Bad contractor: The one's who go permie.
Hope that will help your research.Comment

2. Dubious legisltion IR35, Offshoring
3. ICT abuse
4. Security clearance
more about rate setting, interviewing, career direction & CVs
