right now im hoping the other company replies me within this wk, before i start work. as i have alr postponed by 1 wk alr, i doubt i can ask for more time cos they'll know i have some agenda. i was thinking what if i start work then soon after, say less than a mth, i get the other job. wont it reflect badly on me if i resign so soon..

or shld i give this job up and search for others? this is actually my first job offer and im worried when will the next one come if i give this up now. altho commencement was in july but actually i alr finished my studies since may so strictly speaking i have been jobless for 5mths plus alr.

really dunno how
What course did you study at Uni? Even for a gal 2k its still on the low side nowadays. Poly grads are already getting 1.8k seriously.

Like i said resigning after a week or so may look bad but thats all to it. You are not counting on this company for referral anyway I mean lets say the other company offer you 2.3k, better benefits etc, why stay on?

I think you are not desperate or anything for a job but its kind of demoralising to be jobless for 5 months. Esp seeing your other friends alr landed themselves with jobs? Take up this job first and should the other company offer you better terms later, just resign. It is very common now.

Hope to see your updates here next time.

Good luck
