I am Swiss-based and for senior software developer roles my freelance daily rate is equivalent to USD1000 (one thousand) per day. The contract duration has no relation to my rate.
Although, I agree with zacharyvoase that I do not see the point of your question.

Yes. I was basically interested for software engineers only, but made it bit general for the benefit of e.g. designers.
And this post could just serve as an idea for a more elaborated Poll. I mean, all the previous hourly rate Polls were tailored for short-term freelancers.

Is it productive to ask this sort of thing without differentiating by job description on a basic level?
Thanks. Just updated - it is intended for any level of Software Engineers (or programmers/developers/coders, whatever you call yourself), designers or "similar".
EDIT:
for Software Engineers, [UX] Designers or any other profession with a "similar" responsibility.
So it is NOT for lawyers, doctors, financial consultants, CEO's, etc...

I'd appreciate if anyone with enough karma could create a poll:
---------
For those who work for their clients/employers relatively long term (e.g. > 6 months).
What is your hourly rate, or your monthly salary converted into hourly rate (divided by ~165 hours) in USD?
