Hey Friends,
Can anybody help me out with format of Appointment Letter to a Consultant (Freelancer).
Is it necessary to have an agreement signed between the 2 parties?? Or we can have a normal appointment letter for the same.
Also, is there any legal formalities to be taken care off, when Consultant quits or organisation terminates him??
Thanks in Advance...
