I just started freelancing after doing a few regular SDE "regular" jobs, and just got my first contract through a freelancing agency. It's been pretty nice in my experience, since they helped explain a lot of things about freelancing that I didn't know, and they handle all the taxes for me (so it's a bit like a consulting firm, and I get a W-4). Ideally I'd like to develop a network so I won't need them for leads, but starting out they've been really helpful.
