Hi All:
I just bought a house in El Dorado Hills. So I need to find work in the
Sacramento area once it's built.
Right now I live in the Bay Area. I'd like to ask those of you who live in
the Sacramento area a few questions.
In the Bay Area:
As a contractor I charge $65-70 hr.
As a full-time employee I make 90-120k depending on the responsibilities.
What does a contractor normally charge?
What's the average yearly salary for a full-time employee?
And can anyone recommend some agencies in the Sacramento area?
