I had several places ask me if I'd do contract to hire.

I said then yes, I'll do it for a set period of time at $250/hr, and it can't be canceled by either party until fruition.

To my surprise, they didn't like that offer. Contract to hire is a fucking joke.

Any candidate with a real job offer and a contract-to-hire offer is likely to prefer the real job offer.
