Tips on how to stay employed at home
# When you are working on a contract, don't stop looking for the next position! This way, you will rarely experience lack of work.
# Make sure that you regularly update your resume to reflect your recent employment status.
# Make sure you ask for letters of reference from your clients and employers. Create a list of positive comments you have received about your work and don't be afraid to show it to your next employer!
# Decide on what rates you are willing and able to charge. Don't be the cheapest on the block, but be ready to negotiate for a lower rate in the beginning.
# Sell yourself locally. Use a cold call letter and drop it off to local offices. Be ready to answer their questions about your services.
