All my Js have been via network or serendipity so I have never gotten a regular contract from eg Dice.

Was poking around Indeed to see if I could find jobs that were explicit looking for C2C folks. I came up with a query that filters out any job postings that includes verbiage that negates C2C ("No C2C", "Please no C2C", etc.)
C2C -"No C2C" -"NOT OPEN FOR C2C" -"not eligible for C2C" -"C2C is not "
EDIT - C2C -"No C2C" -"NOT OPEN FOR C2C" -"not eligible for C2C" -"C2C is not " -"do not accept C2C" -"not C2C"...For C2C, do you actually create a website and a business email? Is it worth it? Or do you tend
to reach out to recruiters direct?
In your C2C invoices, do you add any taxes or its just the (C2C rate*hours) as the total?
