What is the difference between a 1099 contract and a W-2 contract job?

A 1099 contract means you're an independent contractor — you handle your own taxes, no benefits. A W-2 contract (fixed-term) means you're on payroll with taxes withheld, and you may receive some benefits, but the job has a defined end date (e.g., 6-month contract).

Can contract remote jobs turn into full-time positions?

Sometimes. Contract-to-hire arrangements are common in tech and healthcare. If you perform well, many employers convert contractors to full-time employees. Ask about conversion potential in the interview.
