Thanks, and in terms of timing? Which is the best period of the year for doing the jump? In your experience which are the most flat or busiest months?
In my experience, I would avoid December and August. But tbh, if you are set on contracting you can interview any time. If you get a role, you can create limited company very quickly. The only piece that takes time is getting a VAT reference.
Also, JobServe is a good website to check to find agencies in your technology and industry sector.
