So, I have offers for two different jobs, both entry-level contact centre stuff, but I'm a bit uncertain of which to accept.
One is with a large insurance firm, £15-16k/year, starts in a month. I'd probably be working on customer service for car insurance services.
The other is at a middle-sized collections firm, £14.5k/year, starts next week. I'd probably be working mostly on outbound collections for energy suppliers, some inbound collections, some customer service.
Work is similar enough, and career advancement isn't a concern because I'm only expecting to hold onto the job for a year before heading back into education. Google suggests they're both okay places to work: not stellar, but decent as contact centre jobs go. The big difference, then, seems to be pay and start date, but they pretty much average out over the next year.
My gut instinct is to go for the collections job, simply because it gets me back in where as soon as possible, but that feels almost too easy. Is there anything else I should be considering? Am I over-thinking what is, as I said, entry-level work?
