Sorry if this is going to be really long but I have a feeling someone out there might be able to help :]. O.k. so I'm 16/f and I've been looking for a summer job for quite some time now. I've applied to about 15 places but no ones called me back :[. Recently, about 2 days ago I applied to two places that seemed really promising, places that wouldn't just throw my application in a pile, this is because they were hiring which definitely helps. I haven't heard back from them yet but yesterday someone finally called me back and asked to set up an interview! Unfortunately this was my last choice, seriously out of every job this was the last one I'd chose but I agreed to the interview. I figured I'd be stupid to pass up the only place that actually called me. I have an interview today in about two hours but I'm afraid if I accept the job the other two places that seemed promising might call and I'll be stuck somewhere I really didn't want to be. I mean I'd feel too guilty quitting for a better offer, that's terrible. But I'll also feel stupid if I don't accept this job because what if the other two places never call. I guess my question is, does anyone have any ideas as to any of this? I probably sound so ignorant but I'm honestly in quite a pickle and help would be much appreciated.
Go to the interview. If the other places don't call you (And they probably won't. only one out of fifteen places has so far). Some places take more than one interview before they actually hire. If that's your case, then you have a little more time to wait on the other two offers.
If not, the last question usually asked at an interview if you're hired is "When can you start?". You can give yourself another few weeks if you give yourself more time between the interview and actually beginning work, which gives you more time to back out if you get a better offer.
Lastly, there's always the chance the interview might not go well and you might not get hired, so don't worry about this too much.
(Rating: 3) Thanks! The other two jobs did call though btw.
