Hi, I am going to quit my perm job due to a terrible boss. Should I accept contract job (maybe even lower pay) in the meantime as a form of exposure and income, while looking for a perm job? Or focus only on looking for perm roles? Don't know how long it will take.
If I accept contract first, will it affect the perception of the next hiring manager and HR? What will be an acceptable reason to them for such a move? I am mid career. |
I was recently offered a contract job (it's my 2nd job after grad) in the healthcare industry. Although I graduated from local Uni, the salary I am offered is the same as my previous salary. Is this normal? Or am I getting shortchanged?

If you had spent 4 mths looking for a job but to no avail, would you hang on or take a paycut to open up more opportunities?

I have savings but I have not reached a point where passive income is enough for expenses, so what will be yr suggestion? Is taking a paycut affecting future prospects? |
Quote:
1) If your passive income is enough to get by with reasonable cuts into your living standards, might as well make the cuts and continue holding on to current pay expectations. 2) If passive income too low to sustain then it is time to lower your pay demands, otherwise when things get desperate you run out of options even worse. I know of people who keep holding on until savings nearly run out, then they start panicking and no choice take up random jobs like security, uber driver, delivery etc. Whether you take a paycut or extend unemployment period both options will damage your CV & affect your future pay prospects to some extent. The important thing is to choose the option that causes less damage to you. |

Hi,
Seeking opinions. Would you accept a job that pays you lower monthly but give higher bonus, therefore total package is similar to last drawn. Or would you wait for another opportunity that could match/ pay higher on a monthly basis? Thanks. |
