Skip staffing agency recruiters, part of why those rates will be extra low is because they’re taking a sizable cut. Go directly to company u want to work at and apply or express interest.
Fuck staffing agencies. I get ~$1000-1100/day as a senior writer, and I've gotten $1300/day before as an ACD/writer. You should aim for the same.
think of the jobs your are being offer not through the lens of your old title. Is the job just about doing? Cheap. Is it thinking? More expensive but shorter term. Is it thinking and doing? Cadaliac prices. Thinking doing AND selling? You name your price.
Appreciate the responses! Seems like avoiding staffing agencies is a better route, but if it's the only option what rates have you gotten?
The staffing firm typically offers you half your normal pay, plus they lock the agency into a contract where you are not allowed to be hired fulltime for 12-18 months after your gig ends, unless the agency pays the staffing firm a big commission.
