The best thing to do is weigh the pros and cons. Will you have opportunity for advancement? Do they provide good benefits? What are the prospects of other job offers? If you can justify waiting or the distance would usurp all the additional money you would make, you might consider waiting if other jobs are out there. However, in todays work climate, I would seriously consider this job because you might not get another for awhile. Good luck to you!

Congratulations on your job offer. Take the job. It's always easier to get a job if you already have one. Stay at your new job for a while so that you can demonstrate your skills, reliability, team work, etc, etc. After a while you can decide if you want to move on again, but you'll be in a stronger position to do it. Whatever you decide, best wishes in your future employment.

I don't think there is a right or wrong answer. It depends on your prospects for a better job--and only you know that. Also in part it depends upon how desperate you are for an income, and whether you can afford to wait it out.
If you can, you might want to trust your instincts. What does your gut say you should do?
Good luck.

TAKE THE JOB!!!
The best time to look for a job is when you have one.
You will have time still to find one that is better for you, but in the mean time you will have an income.
Good luck!

Take it AND wait until something else turns up that suits you better. You can always quit.

Am beats nam. Translation....it's better than nothing. You can always keep looking and checking out other avenues while still getting a paycheck.
