Variety is the spice of life
Working for years in the same organisation just isn’t for everyone, and for many people, contracting is a great way to inject a bit of variety into their professional lives. Educators, for example, who make up a large percentage of fixed-term workers in the UK, may be reenergised by switching school environments year to year. Similarly, designers and other creatives could take advantage of the breath of fresh air offered by contract jobs in order to avoid stagnation.
