Contract vs Permanent Employment

Top Reasons To Go Contracting

  • Variety - increase your skills through diversity of exposure and experience by working in different, and challenging environments.
  • Financial - contracting can be financially rewarding with good pay rates and some tax benefits.
  • Lifestyle - flexibility in the time you work so you can organise time for your own interests.
  • Be your own boss - take control of your own destiny, your career progression and growth.

Top Reasons To Go Permanent

  • Career development - emphasis on long-term career development opportunities as organisations are more likely to promote from within.
  • Job security - the I.T. market fluctuates up and down, a permanent role is more likely to ensure that you are employed when times are tough.
  • Employee benefits - such as annual leave, sick leave, long-service leave, parental leave, and bereavement leave.
  • Team work - it allows you to be a part of the team, get involved in the culture and shaping the direction of your organisation.
  • Commitment - being a permanent employee looks good on your resume - shows commitment, stability, progression.
