Anyone tried to convert from FT to a contractor role? What is the process?

HelloFishes,
I am having 7 years of experience and have offers from Cognizant and TCS. I am little confused, Which one I should join ?

Doing some career planning and wanted some advice. I have 4 years for project management experience in production and I just started PMing at an ad agency.

1.How long should I stay in this position before making my next move?
2. What should my next move be?! (Stay in the company and try to scale up or move on.)
3. Would getting my PMP at this point be helpful?

Better Opportunity: Big 4 marketing or brand management? Long term outlook, pay etc

Is anybody here a notary? And how much are you making from that? Is it a potential side-hustle?

I have an offer and want to negotiate

1. London base salary but I have to absorb all the expenses (train + stay)
I am thinking to negotiate to

2. home base salary and have my expenses paid for

I know that's depends on the amount I have to travel (and potentially stay) but at the moment this is unknown. Past 8 months was just twice a month + 2 nights stay.

The only thing I know is it won't be every week, the return trian ticket is about £80-100, depends I could plan ahead.

Anyone find themselves apologizing for everything, even stuff other people messed up? If I’m just relaying info and that turns out to be wrong, I still am the one to apologize. Especially if it’s to attorneys or partners. Why do I do this?

How did you ramp up into doing actual data science work at your clients?

I am early in my career (3 YOE), but I have a masters degree, cloud data science certs, and strong Tableau/Alteryx experience. However, it seems like a lack of experience doing actual data science client work is what keeps blocking me from landing on data science projects. Any tips?
