Start caring less. Your interviewer is just a person, and it’s just a job. Have the conversation you want to have, and be okay with the fact that getting it or not isn’t a big deal. Hard to do, I know...

C1- you’re 100% right. Both about caring less and about how hard that is lol

I have an offer to do some consulting for a company based out of the UK (I am in the US). The job would not go through a consulting company but would be directly with the company. I have not done any consulting before so I am not sure how it works, what I would need to set up (they mentioned that I would start a LLC and bill them directly, no idea how to do that), how to determine the tax implications of this, or what hourly rate I would expect. Can anyone offer advice?
