Question to all listserv members doing contract work (W-2,1099,etc.)
Going into a job, what is the average stated anticipated duration of a TW
contract assignment.
A recruiter from the Boston area recently told me that 99% of all contract
jobs are initially for three months, but that the majority are subsequently
boosted-up to a duration of six months or more. How does this sound?
Note: I have read that the average stated duration going into a contract job
is six months.
Thanks
Tony Markatos
