Unless your employer paid you through a business, deducted taxes, and sent you a w2; yes you would be considered self employed. You'll have to fill out a schedule C to report your income. The good news is you'll be able to deduct expenses associated with your position. Such as mileage, any uniforms needed, etc. If you have a little knowledge of taxes, TurboTax home and business will walk you through everything. Otherwise, it might be a good idea to enlist professional help. Good luck!
