I have the opportunity to work in my field. It's excellent pay and excellent benefits. I did my summer internship with them and now I've been asked if I want to take the full time permanent position. This job is exactly what I want to be doing after I graduate.
However, I still have 2 years of school left. I could take the job and go to school part time but that would postpone my education and limit the types of classes that I could take. I probably wouldn't graduate for another 3 years or more.
Or
I could turn down the job and try to find part time work and take on school full time. This option would mean that I would graduate sooner but have no money and probably a really lame part time job. But I could leave this city faster and eventually find work in my field.
What should I do?
If it is a job that is in high demand for workers and can be found everywhere, then I would stay in school. The pay would be better afterwards anyways.
However, if it is a job that is scarce or there is a surplus of people going into the field, then take the job and go to school part time or a later time.
