If the present permanent job is a govt job, stick to it. If it is private, you can consider switching for the sake of your family and more pay. Meanwhile, connect me to any one that may not be useful to you any longer...because I need such breakthrough now. Lol......... 1 Like |

I worked as a contract staff for 4 years, I was never converted, I never grew on the job. No incentives, no good allowances apart From the little we got as leave allowances. Infact no proper health insurance except for head ache or little malaria. No trainings except in-house trainings. I didn't gain any special thing apart from the monthly stipends....though,that was for the organisation I worked for, yours may be far different from it. You can give it a trial sha with prayers. Good luck. 1 Like |

my opinion is that you assess your personal inclinations as per family, money and skills and where you do want your career future to settle. If you are family inclined then move back closer to your family and this will reduce your expenditures and increase savings. If its money then you know better where to go based on your cost benefit analysis And finally if you have an idea of where your career should be in the future and one of these two options is in the right direction, then you can choose better. just do the needful. As someone have said earlier there is no job that is permanent. 1 Like |

First you need to be prayerful. Pray for God guidance. In my opinion I will advise you to take up and hold on to the job that will bring you closer to your family. It's important. Either contract or permanent, the 2 jobs are ok. I wish best of luck as you chose one. |

My brother since you are hopeful that the contract job may turn permanent b4 the end of 2yrs,and your former boss who likes you so much is pressuring you to take the contract job which by my jugdement means well for you because of the love he has for you and for the overall reason that the contract job offers you the opportunity to be close to your family,i will humbly advise you to take up the contract job not because the money is bigger but because of the reasons explained above. 1 Like 1 Share |

For me, permanent job all the way. You can't be too sure bout the contract stuff, yea with promises of renewal and conversion to permanent staff, who says? Such promises might not be fulfilled considering the current state of our economy. The permanent job will enable you negotiate for another permanent slot else where..... My 2cent bro. |
Re: Confused About Contract Job And A Permanent Job by ttime(m): 9:35pm On Sep 16, 2016 |
with a great investment plan on the bonus, u shouldnt be worried about loosing your employment after 2 years. you shld start saving for your own start-up. after all, some day, you will still have to be ''let-go'', as u cant work with them forever. earning N500,000 monthly net income for 2 yrs = 12,000,000... abegi.... even if they dont let u go, after 2 years, you should let yourself go as no job is really ''PERMANENT''. even permanent secretaries get retired eventually. |
