Independent Contractor

Is Contracting for You?

If you are an experienced independent contractor, this won’t be news to you. You already know the advantages - and the benefits - of being your own boss.

Information technology is moving ahead at a pace that has employers - from technology start-ups to well established bricks-and-mortar firms - scrambling to recruit people to meet their IT needs.

Was it the wages that made your current position attractive? Or, was it the stock options? You are probably making a salary appropriate for your position and, as for stock options, those pay off only if the company is very successful. Right now, the competition for contractors is fierce - and the payoff is immediate.

As an independent contractor, you can:

  • Enter a world of opportunities - Eagle can match you with challenges that suit your highly specialized set of skills;
  • Increase your earnings and pay less tax on your income; and
  • Choose your own hours - work on contracts that suit your schedule.

Independent contracting gives you the kind of employment and financial freedom that is unavailable to the salaried employee. But independence doesn’t mean you are on your own. At Eagle, we respect and protect your independence while providing the opportunities you need to build a successful business.

If you have ever contemplated a move to independent contracting, there has never been a better time.
