Juggling all the demands of contracting is hard, no doubt about it.  But there's help on the horizon.  The work-family balance will be one of the topics addressed in a live Web seminar that will answer your questions about compensation, taxes, training, assignments, and the entire lifestyle of being a contractor.  "Contractors, You Have Arrived" will discuss the advantages of contracting as well as the problems you face.  A panel of experts will share their knowledge and answer your questions.  The visual/audio seminar, sponsored by Hall Kinion, will take place December 15.  Participants will include Tony Bogar, editor-in-chief of Contract Professional, and members of the Stanford University Center for Work Technology and Organization, Department of Industrial Engineering.  To register for this free seminar, go to http://www.seminar.hallkinion.com.
