I put seperate contracts on as seperate jobs and find getting PHP jobs hilariously easy. People do ask why I change jobs so often, but the standard "I'm a contractor and finance dept don't wanna pay our rates" goes down well enough.

This is my CV, I try to be straight to the point and keep it under 2 pages on the word version.

To be fair the advice is largely still apt.

#1 First step is generally clueless recruiters who'll want you to have 9 years experience with Java 12.

#2 Convince them, your CV goes over. If it has any meat or interesting projects, you'll get called in.

#3 Smile, be likable and be able to talk about $foo at a resonable level and you've got the contract.
