Sometimes, we came to an agreement.

If you tell people you are a consultant, many of them will not understand that you are an independent professional in business for yourself. Many people who call themselves consultants are employees of large global firms like Accenture, and others perform temporary assignments through a staffing agency. We are our own boss.
