Covers everything in one book! [ No Rating ] 15 Jul 2008
I found The Guide to IT Consulting to be one of the most comprehensive and easily read books regarding the complicated world of contracting that I have come across. It is an insightful book, written in simple language that covers every aspect of preparing for and succeeding as a contractor. I found the information how to manage your finances particularly useful, not just the business side of the finances but also how to control your personal finances when you don’t have the security of a salary. This book is a wonderful guide and would be useful not only to someone entering the IT industry but also anyone looking to work as a freelancer.
