Dilemma
Hello
So i just finished uni recently and I’m stuck between two jobs right now and I honestly don’t know which choice makes more sense long term.
One job pays pretty well, especially for someone just starting out, but the work has almost nothing to do with what I studied in school. I’d basically just be doing it for the salary. Although i am working in the environment i studied for but my major tasks are not course related.
The other one is more connected to my course and I’d probably learn a lot, but the pay is just a small stipend. Enough to survive, not really enough to feel stable.
Part of me feels like I should focus on gaining experience while I’m still young, but another part of me is thinking money matters too, especially with how things are right now.
For people who’ve been in this situation before, what did you choose? Did the experience end up opening better doors later on, or do you think taking the money first is the smarter move?
