As long as there is requirement and you are performing well, there is no need to worry - but if they are not renewing your contract then it's better to find other job...

If you don't have any offers then please join it and start looking outside parallely

No cons in Contract to hire unless you're in project. So start searching while you're in project.

What are your thoughts about wearing only a casual graphic tee for an interview at a non-tech company? I interviewed a candidate and he dressed casual (at least from the top and up) when all other candidates were business professional. The position will be full time in office eventually. It left me with a negative impression. Welcoming other perspectives, because maybe my thinking is outdated.
