6 month contract?

[Eey0reandp00bear2]

Have recently started a new job. I have received my contract and it says it's only 6 month position and it will finish on a specific date. I am happy with this but how to I apply for other positions within the same place (more hours or longer term) or do I have to wait until the six months are up? Then hope there is another position I can apply for and(hopefully)get? New to me and I am unsure, any advice appreciated:)

Probably best ask them? Did you know it was a temporary contract when you applied? Is there any chance of it being extended/made permanent?

I did a 9 month temporary contract and a couple of months before it was due to expire, I let my line manager know that I would be applying for other things. They were fine with that but kept me on in the end anyway.
