Really sorry to hear that. Hopefully it's temporary...Yep. 2 weeks. Transition to fully badged employees. Sigh.

Boo. Time to give them goat balls to suck!Yep. 2 weeks. Transition to fully badged employees. Sigh.
I know you will figure out the next path. Your personality and skills are just in too much demand to stay on the bench for long.Yep. 2 weeks. Transition to fully badged employees. Sigh.
I’m in the same boat as I’m contracted with the company I’m at as an Occupational Therapist. They do it because it’s cheaper in a liability aspect (throw me under the bus). Everyday I understand I could be out of a job.Thanks for the well-wishes all. It just sucks. It was a contract position, so the risk was always there. Just sucks to hear that I performed well, they want to rehire me when they can, but higher-ups want to phase out contractors as much as possible in the short term while they recoup and get more projects in and the current ones all get reassigned to fully badged ppl. Totally makes sense on their part, I just get the short end of the stick..esp since the pay was incredible.
It happened to me once before after working at one of the big 4 consulting firms, and they had planned to hire me FT, but my manager's manager/director had other ideas. So instead of working for 1-2 years as a contractor before going FTE, I was let go right at the end of the one year.
Still hoping for FTE so I dont have to experience this craziness every 6 mo or 1 year etc...but ya never know.
Also makes my resume/CV look like garbage.

That does suck. And knowing they want to have you fulltime, and getting that positive feedback, is both really great and also double-suck. Also, I wouldn't worry too much about the job changes on your resume, a lot of folks experience that as they are building their work history -- especially in the current work force. Just take all of the good you can from the experience. The next position will be even better and hopefully FT.Thanks for the well-wishes all. It just sucks.

Are you worried about how it looks on your resume because of how many jobs you have gone through? If that's the case, hopefully any potential employers would realize that is only because of contract work. I don't know much about the industry you are in but it sounds like there are plenty of opportunities especially being that you are near a big city if on site work is required (if your position isn't typically a virtual one). Job transitions are always scary but something tells me your determination and professionalism will land you something great. Chin up and stay strong, you got this!Thanks for the well-wishes all.

Yes, having several 6 month positions on my resume looks like garbage as opposed to if it was 1-2 yrs etc...and while yes, its a given for many contractors, it ust having to explain it, or not necessarily having a "feference" from the previous place...but obviously I got along well with my manager and others, so hopefully I could use them.Are you worried about how it looks on your resume because of how many jobs you have gone through?

Don't worry about the 6 months timeline. It's common to for contractors to peace out for other opportunities.Yes, having several 6 month positions on my resume looks like garbage as opposed to if it was 1-2 yrs etc...and while yes, its a given for many contractors, it ust having to explain it, or not necessarily having a "feference" from the previous place...but obviously I got along well with my manager and others, so hopefully I could use them.
As for on-site, I could do it but am trying not to haha. So much time and money saved by not having to commute, by not having to bring a lunch, all that...and most office type of jobs can be done virtually/remote so whats the reason for on site? Oh because you have to pay taxes on the land for your office? I mean, is my work getting done and on time and good? Yes? Then WTF.
The positive/negative for remote work is that I can apply to jobs with companies based in NY, Texas, Ohio, Calif, Washington, Colorado whatever...the negative is that everyone can apply to those positions too.
Have you considered speaking to your supervisor about writing you a letter of reference/recommendation to take with you? I think that would carry a lot of weight and maybe put you a step above other applicants who don't have an encouraging letter written by a previous supervisor.Yes, having several 6 month positions on my resume looks like garbage as opposed to if it was 1-2 yrs etc...and while yes, its a given for many contractors, it ust having to explain it, or not necessarily having a "feference" from the previous place...but obviously I got along well with my manager and others, so hopefully I could use them.

I'm sad to see this post, but chin up Kit. One of your incredible qualities is your resiliency and I have a really good feeling that you'll do just fine. I'll be thinking about you and praying for the best for youUGH
MAY be losing my job!!!! (in 2-3 weeks)
All project managers that are on contracts are supposedly being replaced with full-time badged employees who havent had as much work lately etc
The good news is they said if its all true, and I am phased out in a couple of weeks, that my manager likes me and my clients have said nothing but positive things and theyre hoping to rehire ppl back in October or so if they can.
Ill let you know when I do.
SIGH
Might be a very lonely and unpaid birthday for me![]()
I am a single point in spacetime, damnit!Funny when people think so one dimensionally.

hahaha...yeah trust me, Ill be reaching out for that...though I dont think anyone reads those when applying to jobs but if they post something on linkedin it may assist.Have you considered speaking to your supervisor about writing you a letter of reference/recommendation to take with you?
