Hi there,
I am currently nearing the end of my apprenticeship and I am starting to think about different routes I can go down once I'm "qualified". Obviously one option is to work for myself which does sound appealing, however I'm aware it isn't as straightforward as some people make out.... ?.
So I was wondering what would I need to do to become self employed? What schemes do I need to sign up to, what insurances do I need, guides to pricing work etc. if someone could make a brief list of what I need to research, that would really help as I'm struggling to find a starting point. Alternatively, if there is already a thread or a website that can help that would be very appreciated as I feel like I'm looking into a bit of an abyss atm ?
TIA
(My apprenticeship will give me my 5357,18th edition, T&I)
