Personally been charging 100 an hour. No idea if that's too low, but the work is easy and can easily mangage the workload with my day job.

Been offered contract roles for 130-150, though.

Was going to say 1,100 - but pandemic probably has it down.

Any advice on the best way to get paid? Have you asked to get paid by the US office instead? Any watch-outs for tax season?

TIA!

Hate to be this guy, but I don’t have time to send my resume, portfolio, experience, availability, and hourly rate to your boss, only to find out that the role is 40 hrs a week when I barely have 10 to give. That’s what LinkedIn/my website is for.
