Are contract roles voluntary? I am offered a contract role but expecting to get a full time offer soon, will I be able to discontinue the contractor position at any time?

If you read the contract, most don't say you're required to stay any certain amount of time. They could easily end your contract just as quick as you could quit it. I'd just do your research and read the fine print.

I most certainly will, thank you for your response

What country are you in?

USA 🇺🇸 All my work till until now was permanent and voluntary. I assumed that contractor role is no different till until I was asked if I was sure I wanted to stick out the whole three years of contract. That got me thinking, what if the contract says I must work all three years or something. Haven’t seen the contract yet

I'm at a career juncture and have decided on a career in anti-money laundering as my new path. I'm also highly interested in additional education to further my career and am eyeing graduate school.

Hello fishes,

I have 6 and half YOE in front end development. (angular and hybrid applications). I joined my current organization ( product based) in Feb for 24LPA. The work here is too stressful and there is absolutely zero WLB. So I decided to start looking out again. However I am not getting good interview calls. Are most companies not hiring now ? Or could it because my CTC is too high ?
