What Should I do??

So today got a job offer Data Entry at a Cold storage near by the wage is $12 and its Temp. To Hire

While on the other hand

I have a Second interview for what I majored in and the wage is $14 full time BUT they will call me to schedule an appt for second interview until they hear back from interviewer may be until 2 weeks from yesterday

BUT

The Data Entry needs some one ASAP and if I pass the Assessment Test I will mostly be tired if I do the Temp Job will be Until July.

Should I take it OR should I wait for the 2nd Interview one?

I've been in your situation more times than I can count. My advice is don't put all your eggs in one basket. So it means don't put all your faith in one inrerview, so until you received the interview for the job you really want I would take the job that is offering an interview first or until this company makes you a final offer. 9 out of 10 the 2nd interview your waiting for will come and if it doesn't come in time or pan out to be what you thought then this way you didn't loose anything time or money. I hope that helps you.

If you really need the money than take the job. You can always quit later if the other job comes through.

You know your situation but I would take it ASAP. If the other offer for your preferred job comes in, give your two weeks then and tell them it’s not working for you. Remember if you aren’t working out for the employer, they won’t think twice about letting you go. But turning down an offer for one that may not pan out is a little tough.

I would definitely take it :-) if the second offer comes then you can decide to take that and give notice to your first job. But the important thing is least you have a job :-) good luck with what you do

Take the temp to hire job. You can always keep looking and give two weeks notice when you get something else

Take the position you have a NOW time to do. Both of them are not for sure, so follow the yellow brick road, and step by step your future will also be. Take the test, go for the interview. Do it all!!

Take it; if the other job comes through you can still take it and the fact that you're currently working may look better for the job you actually want & if they don't hire you, you have something until you find the job better suited for you.

Take the sure money now and leave if the other company offers you a job. It's already the 1st week of may. By the time the other company calls you back for an interview, and then you set it up, interview, they reference check you and offer you a job? IF THEY DO? It's could a whole three weeks to a month. AND you can tell them in that interview that you are available two weeks from the offer. No one is going to be mad at you for giving the place you are working 2 weeks notice. And it's a temporary position. So by the time all that happens? If it does? We are talking about only shorting them about two weeks of the assignment and doing it with notice. No harm, no foul and you get to earn in the mean time
