I am getting an interview for this job. I think I understand the tasks and feel I can do the job...but I have some concerns.
It is a rotating contract, with NO benefits. The pay is only 18-22hr, but they already said $25 is very possible.
I love the job description, but for that type of money with no benefits, it seems way too low.
Please tell me what you can about this job, and what typically a person is paid in this position.
12 Months contract w/ extensions.
Please see attached SOW for job description. The candidate must be able to work with electronic circuits. THIS IS NOT AN IT DESKSIDE SUPPORT ROLE
