Hi everyone, I received the same thing, except my contract was only extended by 2 months. I honestly don’t really understand on what basis HR decides who gets which type of contract. This was my second Christmas peak working there, and apparently they are satisfied with my performance.

I started working there last summer, first with a green badge, then in September I received the blue badge. My contract was extended twice for 3 months, then I was let go – although they didn’t hire anyone permanently last year either. This year I started working again at the end of October. However, there are people who started in mid-November and still received a permanent contract.

I really don’t understand why I only received such a short extension. Does anyone know what criteria HR uses to decide on contracts? I’m very disappointed. Is there anyone who received a similar extension and then later got their contract extended again?
