Thank you!!!!!
Love this — choosing passion over a bigger paycheck is powerful. 🙌
What was the moment you realized it was time to make the switch?
Just burnt out recruiting. I suspect any profession gets that way when you've been doing it at an insane pace for years.
Congrates

im still trying to get that first contract :(
Dang! I have yet to get one on Contra. What kind of work do you do?
Reddit isn't a bad place to find leads. Obvi X + LinkedIn but I feel Reddit is underutilized largely due to not knowing who the heck you are talking to.
same im still trying

Well done @Will Gordon
Keep smashing those earnings milestones 🔥
Honestly, I've considered doing some light recruiting on the side to keep the lights on. One recruiting placement is typically 25 - 40K and so much less work...
Congratulations Will!
This is a big win. Congratulations
