[QUOTE="Phillydog1958, post: 294992, member: 8704"] It's not the greatest opportunity, but it's better than being unemployed. I'd do it and also be looking for another job. The advantage of looking for work and being employed, is that you don't appear as desperate. For some reason, potential employers seem to unconsciously gravitate to hiring people who are currently employed. I really think it's easier to find a job when you're working. I can't put a finger on exactly why. Let's call it human nature. Also, if you take this job, you will meet people who might want to hire you away from this "Contract job." Maintain your professionalism, as you do your duties, and you will impress someone. You will eventually get the job that you want. It's almost sounds like this position is for an "Independent Contractor, " rather than employee. Typically, independent contractors positions don't carry benefits, because benefits are expensive. This is a short-term opportunity. Take it! [/QUOTE]
