I looked into this a few years back and was told to figure out what yearly salary I'd like, accounting for my area's cost of living and the cost of health care, retirement, etc., unless the agency offers benefits. Divide this salary number by 2000 and you come up with the approximate hourly rate to shoot for. For example, if you need $100,000 to live on, then $50 an hour should be fine. Hope this helps.

Hi, Does anyone know what the hourly contract rate is for a Sr. IT Auditor with 15+ years experience? I have had some agencies call me and ask me if I 15+ want to work as an Sr. IT Auditor for about $50 an hour on short term contracts (i.e. about 6 months). Is this a good rate or am I being low balled? What rate do IT Security Consultants with a CISSP get?...seems to me I should get about the same. Anybody know of any web sites that list contract rates for security or audit people? Please note that I am not asking how much a client companies pays...because I know that an agency gets about 30-50% cut. I am asking what is the hourly amount that would go into my pocket Tony CIA,CISA,CDP,MBA _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: smart spam protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This message is the property of Time Inc. or its affiliates.
