Find your next contract job with Robert Walters
Four myths to debunk about contracting
In Singapore, while job seekers are increasingly aware of the benefits of contracting, and are more open to seeking interim or contract roles over permanent ones, a sizeable number of candidates across industries still prefer permanent roles, with 33% of jobseekers saying they would not consider interim or contract job offers. This not only presents certain challenges for companies hiring for interim or contract roles, job seekers also forgo what could possibly be beneficial career progression choices.

While leaving a permanent role isn’t without risks, contracting can be an amazing opportunity for you to take charge of your career. The key is in ensuring you have the correct mindset before taking the plunge.
