I'm at a point where I'm trying to decide on a career and three offers have appeared...I'll provide some info on each and let me know what you would choose:
1) Public accounting - staff accountant at a regional firm in Florida at approx. 55 k a year. (60 hours a week of work expected)
2) Federal Govt - FBI position at 52 k a year in DC (40-50) hours a week expected.
3) Disaster Management - high tech company providing a supporting role in disasters, approx. 100k a yr - but also a minimum of 84 hrs a week(often 100+ hours) with no days off during disasters. Also uncertain long term work because work depends on the nature of disasters. Between disasters pay will go way down. (50k/yr)
Once I make a decision I can't go back and pick another. Also keep in mind I am halfway done with my CPA exam and because of the positions I would start in, I would not receive the experience required to obtain a CPA license in the FBI job or the Disaster management job.
I know it's up to me, but what would you do in this position?
