Over the past two years, we have seen more than a pandemic. The veil between our home and working lives has been lifted, conversations around wellbeing have opened up, many pretences have been dropped and we have sight of the bigger picture. Up until now, requesting to work from home for many would have been
Throughout the pandemic, we have experienced a whole host of different norms with regards to restrictions, eating outside, eating inside, where we work… every promised development comes with a caveat that the next step may be a step backwards rather than a step forwards. What the future holds is still up in the air and
2020 was a year like no other and so much has changed. Think back to before the pandemic and most of us have some sort of fuzzy memory of life before everything got turned upside down. Travel mugs, lunchboxes, change for the machine have all been temporarily shelved. The daily commute, the faint chatter of
Since itContracting was established in 2010, we have created prosperity across the technology sector, positioning the best temporary, contract and permanent candidates within the brightest companies. And we attribute this to two main factors: Firstly, our position as an IT company that knows recruitment rather than a recruitment company trying to understand IT. And secondly,
If your consumption of coffee has significantly increased since the start of the pandemic – you’re not alone. Ever since the world started working from home, everything has moved online. And even though there are so many benefits to taking a more flexible approach to working life, more and more are feeling overwhelmed by the
The balance of contracting versus permanent roles has traditionally fallen in line with the economy. When the economy was doing well, the number of permanent roles increased. And when the economy started to sink again, the number of contracting roles starting to rise. Up until the pandemic, however, the number of contracting roles was continuing
2020 has been a challenging year. Many have had to adapt, be it working from home, changing roles, switching from permanent to contract or simply working under all the added stresses that the year has piled on top of everyone. So, with the Christmas holidays finally here, it’s time to switch off – not just
Since the pandemic, many people’s working lives have changed completely. We’ve now gone from being in the office full-time, to either working from home full-time or following a hybrid model. Either way, a shift has occurred. And although working from home can be great for productivity, there are a few instances where we greatly benefit
Over the course of 2020, businesses – and people – have changed. And many have had to adapt to the different needs that this has presented across the market. To find out more about how our own company has developed over the years, we spoke to Associate Director, Tracy Quinlan, and Service Delivery Manager, Carol
Covid or no covid, life will always bring a level of uncertainty. And anxiety can affect us all, for lots of different reasons – and in different ways too. However, this doesn’t mean we can’t find ways of managing it. And often, when we start practising a few helpful techniques, we can start to help

Working from home isn’t a novelty anymore. In fact, for many of us, it’s a reality that is probably going to be with us for some time. Even though we’re used to it now, however, the fact that it was so unexpected, made it feel temporary. So, our approach has been with this in mind.
The Covid-19 crisis has pretty much thrown the whole world on its head. Everything we knew before has changed and we’ve had to adapt as much as possible – almost overnight. As it became clear that everyone needed to start working from home, we were presented with a number of challenges. Parents for one would
Over the past few months, the world has been thrown into an alternate reality. For some it feels like they’re on pause. For others it feels like everything has been turned on its head and we’re all trying to find new ways to live our daily lives in the best way we can. Along with
Contractors aren’t afraid of moving around. In fact, it’s only natural to offer a little flexibility when it comes to where you work – as well as where you source a good cup of coffee in the morning. However, when it starts to feel like you spend more time in your car than at home,
