Sorry, i seem to only come on here for advice about jobs etc....

Been really busy, kids, work, money issues......

Just wanted peoples opinions on this sittuation.

You have an interview on 21st Feb higher pay closer home, and "another office job"

You have an interview on 1st March, much higher pay, same location as current job and "a career as a associated practioner"

You attend the 21st interview and they offer you the job before you attend the 1st march interview.

What do you do? Clearly you prefer the 1st march as its a career and much higher pay and no change to location, but dont want to turn down the offered oppurunity?

Do both and if you get both then choose the one you want.
If you have to start the 1st one before the 1st march or before you hear about the 2nd one then so be it just resign and do the better job.

they have shown you no loyalty whatsoever so take what you can.

yeah thats my thought, i would have to give 1 months notice anywhere, so I was thinking putting my notice in accepting the job, and if i get the 1st march one, then just explaining it to accepted job and taking the better one.

The first interview is for Community Administrator within NICU (Neo Natal Intensive Care Unit) Pay band 3 so my pay would be £15,860, currently im on £14,614

The second interview is for Point of Care Trainee Associated Practioner within Blood Sciences. Pay is 75% of top of band 4, which would be £16,348, they will send me to Manchester Uni to study Degree in healthcare sciences (they going to pay fees and even travel expenses!) once qualified will stard at bottom of band 4 which is £18,402

So clearly second job would love !

agreed, accepting a job over the phone doesnt tie you to anything, youve already said about the loyalty youve not been shown in other jobs so why should you

Can't you just say you need 2 weeks to think about it if it is offered or are they looking for someone to start straight away?
