Hi Dilshad,

Probably the biggest hurdle that you face in getting a permanent position is that you are looking for a very specific niche role as a QA Tester that is needed for specific points in a software project - and therefore is often a short-term role on any single project.? To find a permanent position in?this role, I'd suggest targeting the following types of organizations:

- Large organizations with their own IT?departments,?where there is a dedicated QA practice or sufficient number of projects to keep a QA?resource on a full-time basis.??If the job description is for a single project only, then chances are it won't be?a permanent role.? If the?job description is for a?QA role in the organization (refers to multiple projects, rather than a single project), then it's more like a permanent role.

- Consulting companies that provide QA resources for their clients.??Larger consulting companies are often willing to hire?QA Testers as?their own?employees, then they will find you work?with their clients.? You'll still move from project to project and from?one client business to another?- but you'll be permanently employed with a regular paycheck by the consulting company.??Be aware that you will make less income when you are an employee than when you contract yourself, because the consulting company needs to?make?its own profit.

Networking is also a good way to find job opportunities.? Sometimes companies will hire without posting a job.? Talk to your fellow BA's to see if they are working for a consulting company, and if their company might be interested in hiring a QA Tester.? You can network with BA's in any role (not just other QA Testers), since consulting companies?often hire?for a variety of different BA roles.
