[Print-friendly version]

Because you sometimes are required to send away a number of applications or present at a number of interviews around the same time, you could get more than one job offer.

A good way to help you decide between job offers is to make a list of both the positives and negatives for each position. It could include issues, such as:

  • the way you have been treated so far
  • location
  • responsibilities
  • and salaries etc.

If the differences between the positions are obvious, it should help you make the decision. If the differences are minimal then you should reflect on which will satisfy your strongest work/life values or which position will satisfy you emotionally.

Please make a career counselling appointment if you want a Careers and Employment staff member to help you with the decision making process.
