silverglade Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 hi , i see a lot of "this job is a contract job" on craigslist.org. Does that mean they only use you for one job? and then they dont need you anymore? any help greatly appreciated. thanks . derek Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/189525-what-is-a-contract-job-on-craigslist/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Yeah pretty much. They generally "contract" you to perform work either till a certain project or development is complete, or for a fixed amount of time. I imagine it's the same on craigslist.

Ninjakreborn Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 A contract job is simply a way of saying you will be on a 1099 position. They do this so you get no ideas that you will be receiving W2 employment. It's a nice way of saying, "We don't want to hire you, but want to use you as a contractor as we need you." Generally all freelancers are taking on contract work whether or not a contract is involved..it's still considered "Freelance Work" with no permanent/long-term employment (benefits, paid vacation, paid taxes, etc...).
