K4, when you say you had a contract, were you a W2 employee or a 1099? Were you an "independent contractor?" Were payroll and FICA taxes taken out of all your checks?
If the project ended...are you sure you qualify for unemployment? Double check okay? I'm not in IT, God knows. But I got let go of an independent contractor job before, and got NO benefits, a few years back when the project was finished. Kind of sucked but the pay was originally good enough to say yes. And I never looked into unemployment (my issue) but was told in passing I would not qualify. Maybe you mean "project" when you say contract and not "contractor" which is a legal/tax term for my purposes here.
Just asking...& hoping you get something you like MORE.
This may be a blessing in disguise and it'll help YOU to look at it as such. Seriously. Put out positive energy into the world and not desparation....you have had better jobs than you're leaving, right? Okay, say only good things about the other jobs and how happy you are to be looking to take on more responsibility and learn more and blah blah blah =you're a great IT guy...etc.
