    Which city is it? That might make all the difference? If it is Manchester you want to turn everything down until someone offers you something there and take it... whatever the rate

    Delaying A for say a week wouldn't be a killer, explain to B your under a serious time constraint. See if you can get something from that. I did that and they interviewed me at B less than 2 days later.

    If not then as most say take A. This isn't really the best time to be gambling with gigs imo.

      WHS - That's a good option... (and as someone said previously, it will take a few days for B&C/QDOS to review Client A's contract...)

          Fix up the interview for B. You haven't signed anything with A yet, and they may put off the start date again.
          If A come across with the contract (and a firm start date) in the meantime I think you have to go with them.

            Nothing more useful to add than these lot, except yay, well done!
            Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.
