The 80/20 Rule in IT Project Management
The 80/20 Rule states that in any project, 80 percent of the work will be done in 20 percent of the time but the other 20 percent of the work will require the other 80 percent of the time. That may sound counterintuitive, but from my experience, it is pretty close to true.
Working short term contracts instead of long term permanent positions has some pros and cons. I have worked on both short contract and longer consulting positions, and as a permanent employee. What I have been able to do in each is very different and how it looks on my resume tells an interesting story.

Interviewing needs to be developed as a technical skill just as important as your other skills. Because of this, it is important to view interviewing as not just a part of job hunting, but as a part of one’s career. From the employer side, interviewing should be seen as an important skill for assembling the best team possible.
