Great Contract Work

Lots of job listings for contract remote jobs
Cons
It's contract work fills the gaps between full time work. I don't have any cons about contract work. Work is work it's all good.

Not a lot of great potential, very unsure about CC.

There’s plenty of opportunities if you could even qualify or get any of them. The recruiting staff I spoke to all seem pretty nice and they do call and email respond personally (not automation). CC a big name in the recruitment industry.
Cons
I’ve not gotten a single placement with CC despite being told my portfolio is amazing compared to their other active candidates. The communication with the recruiters is often terrible where I would call back, leave voicemails, send texts, send emails and still receive no responses. Many of the email job blasts appear fake as I applied to all that I was qualified and overqualified for, just to be ignored or never heard back or they somehow chosen someone who have “more experience” doing the most basic work which is wild to me. Just the other day, I received 6 rejections from CC for roles that I qualified and would’ve done MUCH more for. I don’t know who’s getting hired by CC but this agency is a waste of time. I don’t recommend them unless you’re desperate. Also, they often have roles with companies that are unstable and constantly restructuring–basically no job security even with full time roles. Lots of the roles are with companies that have churn and burn models. There’s no real human interactions here; everyone just wants their commission and couldn’t care less about you. You only get jobs if you’re friends with a recruiter. They also take a huge cut for hourly rates and tons of the jobs are extremely low pay.
