Take those contract jobs!

If you ever get an offer to do a contract job and you are unemployed, my advice is to take the job even if it pays you less than what you were making in your last job.

A contract job will:

• open doors to new opportunities that may lead into permanent positions
• increase your job history
• show potential employers that  you have made an effort in your job search
• maintain your skills in the workplace
• increase your opportunity to networking circles

Many times, people fall into a concept of idealism and don't realize that rejecting those jobs is rejecting opportunities.
