    Which J2EE gig to choose??

    Hi Guys ,

    I have two choices for my next gig.

    Option A :
    Tech : ESB , App servers , Spring , Hibernate
    Paying : £ X
    Commute: 20 minutes
    Initial duration: 6 months (could be long term)


    Option B:
    Tech: Web Services , Spring , Hibernate , Struts , JSP
    Paying: £ (1.142X)
    Commute : 20 minutes
    Initial Duration: 6 months (could be long term)

    Both of them are big names in the UK. Any comments to help me decide will be much appreciated.

      As I believe I am posting a reply to suityou01's beer tasting thread, Option 1 seems to contain Fuller's ESB, therefore choose that one.

        I always pick the highest rate, unless I already know I will hate the role.

        Any role can turn bad, so a better rate will always help to get you through the day

          are you seriously going to go for a less well paid contract because you get experience in "ESB"..whatever that is..

          I'm alright Jack

            I agree. I am not a fan of Fuller's products. But if they are providing it for free, I might get to like it.

                  Did you check out the coffee and the toilets at each site? Did you find out if the stationary cupboard is locked?
