I had two interviews for two similar contract roles last week. I would be happy to undertake both roles and both clientcos want me to come back for second interviews ().
However the times of these interviews are over 1 week apart.
Role 1 - has the slight edge in preference and is paying 20% higher rate. However they cannot second interview me until next week due to availability.
Role 2 - is slightly nearer to home (1/2 hour journey time saving each way) which would make balance out the rate difference. They want to interview me this week with a view to starting straight away.
I know this is a good position to be but I want to have both interviews before making any decisions.
The agent is trying to bring the interview date for role 1 forward. If role 2 is offered this week I feel like I should accept given that I am not guaranteed to be offered role 1.
So my options if the role 1 interview cannot be brought forward as I see it are to;
i) delay role 2 interview if possible until interview date is nearer to role 1
ii) take role 2 if offered and take the hit on the rate
iii) wait for the interview for role 1 and take the risk of it not being offered
iv) explain to the situation to both agents and agree to wait for both interviews before deciding
Any comments/advice please ?
