Honestly, I've never thought of that, can you explain to me what is a contracting company, is it something like a consulting company?

They are job placement companies. Big companies may use them for hiring, sometimes to find contractors, sometimes to find employees.

For example here’s one:

teksystems.com/it-jobs/en-US/searc...

The people who place people are called recruiters. You could find the recruiters in your area on LinkedIn and send them a message and friend request.

If there are none in your area maybe a remote job would be better:

weworkremotely.com/categories/remo...

Cheers
