Contract work or permanent, which would you take?

A permanent role may come up, but the contract starts now. I worked as a nurse's aide before this. I have 12 months of savings left. How did you handle benefits?

Ask about extension likelihood and whether the team has hired contractors before.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 12 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
