Cognitect (and previously Relevance) always seem to have openings for 
contract Clojure developers.  I was wondering if anyone here has applied 
for and/or actually been hired for one of these positions, and was willing 
to share their experience?

I have thought about the possibility of being a contractor for Cognitect 
for awhile, and it's been pretty much my target goal as I've been learning 
Clojure/Datomic over the last 8-9 months.  The bar seems pretty high - I 
mean, do you have to be a Mike Fogus or Tim Baldridge to work there?

My current contract is winding up soon, and my Clojure skills are at the 
point where I think I am almost productive enough to use it professionally 
(IMO you have to actually USE something professionally to reach that last 
level of productivity, which is why I said almost).  This would be an ideal 
time to make the switch, but I don't want to apply too soon and ruin my 
chances.

One other question - for anyone who has worked as a contractor for them, 
was there usually/always enough work to keep you busy full time, or would I 
need to plan on doing other freelance work to fill in the gaps between 
assignments for them?

TIA for any advice.
