Questions

I don’t feel comfortable sharing this with many people so I just want insight, no sarcastic answers.

I’ve worked in financial aid for almost a yr, prior to this I worked in academic advising at another school for 2 years. This job is remote & will stay remote, the last position wasn’t & I hated it bc of management, didn’t get along with some staff & was unhappy. This role is remote but so far I get along with my team & like my boss, I have times where I feel overwhelmed & as if I’m not good at my job bc FA can be a bit much. My boss gives good feedback but I compare myself to others & second guess my work ethic.

I’ve interviewed for 3 roles so far, after my 2nd interview I was offered role as a Proof of graduation specialist. My boss was a Mgr for this dept before & said the job itself can be monotonous, the team was nice she just didn’t like managing it bc of the drama it came with. I was offered a position, same pay, wouldn’t start till March & the offer letter won’t be sent until next wk anyway so I have time to think about it.

I just interviewed for another job in the same company but academic services, the pay is a lot higher & I think I’ll be hearing back next wk. I like my current job but it’s call center like, can be busy & I want to get more experience in higher education. Sometimes it just doesn’t feel like a good fit but I’m worried it’ll come across as job hopping, I won’t be good at it & I won’t have the same type of mgmt/team dynamic I have now. If I get the academic services job that triumphs all no expectations though, I’m asking more about if I don’t get it & I have to choose between the offer I just got & my current role. I feel like I’m underpaid too with my current rate, which won’t change if I have to accept the offer I just got.
