Vantage Resources ran their second ever poll from Tuesday the 12th of June to Monday the 18th of June. This time the question posed was; as an IT contractor would you accept a lower daily rate if training was provided as part of the job? Voters had two answers from which to choose; yes or no. The poll proved quite popular with visitors and register users of the website.

By the close of the poll at midnight on Monday 18th of June, 58.8% of voters indicated that they would accept a lower daily rate in return for training on the job. This result was similar to the result after the first day when 60% voted in favour of a lower daily rate for training. However, on Thursday the average result was against a lower rate, as 53.8% indicated that they would forego training for their usual daily rate. By Friday it had changed back to a favourable vote for training with a 69.6% vote result.

This week we ask; what time of the day are you most likely to do an Internet search for your next IT Contract? The choices are; before work, morning, lunch time, afternoon, evening or after work. We look forward to hearing your opinions.
