    About:
    Learning how to become an independent consultant (or contractor) may be one of the best decisions you make this year. In this video, I explain what a contractor is and how you can become one, using my journey as a high level guide. Contracting is a lucrative business model for someone who wants to make more, but develop new networks, relationships, experiences and skills throughout their career. I also explained IR35 and what in means in laymans terms. Enjoy the video!

    Thanks, I'm at a fullltime job in Canada and will be moving to the UK, but staying with the company and working remotely as an independent consultant. Figuring out moving and visas and work has been information overload, I have a hundred tabs of government websites open and have done too much reading, so I appreciate you compiling your experience in video form!

    Lovely video, thanks Michael.

    I see a lot of 3 month notice periods recently.
    Not best for employees, especially getting into contracting.
    I definitely want to get into contracting.
    Reasons:
    Freedom to focus on one thing, get really good at it, so it's not too hard for me to do again.
    Flexibility of working time.
    Money.

    • @MichaelTabirade
      @MichaelTabirade  Рік тому +1

      Hey Vince, thank you for sharing your feedback it is much appreciated 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
      There definitely seems to be, and does make it feel hard to transition, as organisations tactically need a sense of security themselves, although there are always "loopholes" that are used.
      Those are defo options possible with contracting dependent on the type of contract you have.
      I'm wishing you a fruitful journey! 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

    Thanks for this video. I plan to become a contractor in future but had no idea where to start. I have strong work ethic, an reliable, easy to get along with and well organised.
    Deep down, I want to become a contractor because a previous employer screwed me over but stunting my career growth. They didn't care about my loyalty.
    Other than that, i love working on a variety of projects, working with companies rather than working for, being valued for your niche and having the ability to not be involved in lengthy meetings and work politics.

    This video was incredibly helpful, im only 20 and looking to go into contracting soon because employment just seems to infantalise adults. Do you have any advice for dealing with accountants? I know its always good to look for one that "speaks your industry language" but any other tips would be much apprecited.

    • @MichaelTabirade
      @MichaelTabirade  2 роки тому +1

      Great to hear you're interested at such a prime age. My advice would be to find an accountant that works for an FCSA-approved organisation, or one similar. In addition, be clear about your circumstances and what you are potentially looking for so that they can provide more context to you. If you know how you will be taxed i.e. being inside or outside IR35, get them to do an illustration for you. Get a clear understanding of fees and how the relationship should work up front, even if it sounds silly. Finally, be honest: the more you share about your situation and contracts, the better they will work for you. I ask my accountant A LOT of questions, and it helps me learn a great deal about business in general.

    Is there any courses like diploma to be a general contractor???

    • @MichaelTabirade
      @MichaelTabirade  Рік тому +1

      This is a good question - typically there isn't. You will usually see consultant firms offer courses and programmes to their graduates which consist of a number of bespoke or procured management and leadership programmes. The simple answer is no. I have created a course on how to get into the industry which you can check out here: masterigroup.com/tic-checkout/
      In the future, I will be releasing more courses centred around leadership, managing, programme and project management (dealing with change) to help contractors and professionals alike.
      In the meantime check out videos on youtube and try to practice what is preached. Accompany it with detailed notes to help you clarify your understanding.

      It's not easy and I sympathize with you. It's a problem that is not discussed enough. A lot of people don't like their jobs, or even the people in them. A lot of people want a more aligned option. I'm not saying contracting is the complete answer but for me is a better option provided you have the right mindset for it. What did you end up doing?
