Contracting can be the perfect start to your career after training with Just IT. Working as a contractor gives you the opportunity to experience working in different companies which allows you to develop a broad range of skills, learn about what sort of environments suit you well and build up a picture of the sort of work you want to do. At the moment, 5 Just IT candidates are on a part-time contract working for a support company based in central London. They complete two hours of work every morning leaving their days free to complete a range of activities such as job searching and exam revision. This means that they are keeping their CV fresh with current work, taking home a wage and maximizing their opportunities to get the best job possible in the future by passing exams and applying for roles which they know will suit their skills. At Just IT a range of such opportunities is available when you have finished training so that candidates looking to explore the contracting market are able to do so and have expert advice on hand.
