I've had a similar dilemma myself. I was in the process of dealing with two jobs...both interviews would be on consecutive days. The first one was a Wednesday (this was a permanent role for a long-term project) and the second was a telephone interview in Dublin (contract, 6 months, but would be renewed provided I can do my job, that isn't a worry to me). Problem was with the permanent job is that they had two other interviews the following week and thus had to wait whereas the contract position had a very rapid start (the following week).
So I had to make a quick decision.
Strange thing happened. In the meantime I had a direct offer of a contract from the German office of my company (I currently work for the UK subsidiary which is being wound up, and thus I am in the process of being made redundant) which served me even better than the other two jobs anyway, so a very tough situation was taken away from me (phew), although I do feel bad for the other contract who really needed someone fast, found someone who could do it just in time (me) and then I had to withdraw, but I am also receiving a far better rate from the German contract too.
And hello everyone, I must find somewhere to make a proper introduction of myself nowComment
