Moving out in 6 months, should I accept a job?

Published

I graduate and got my RN license in 2009 and have been looking for a hospital job with no luck. During this time I worked in a nursing home for 1 year and now in private duty for almost 1 year. My husband and I just found out that we will move out of MA in about 6 months (he got a job offer). I was happy with this idea until I got a call from HR inviting me for an interview in a hospital in MA that I've always dreamed of working. I applied for this position long time ago... My question is: should I go for the interview and if the job is offered work for 6 months and leave or should I say no thanks?

I feel guilty accepting a job knowing that I am leaving but on the other hand 6 months of experience would help me finding something in the future. I don't know what to do :confused:

If you have any advice I would appreciate.

Thank you so much!

Go ahead and go to the interview.

What happens if something ends up falling through with his job offer?

Could happen.

Honestly dont. Tell them your leaving(if your husband is sure of the transfer) it wont look good on your resumé leaving work under a year, specially if you wanna be in an acute care setting. It would seem that you cant handle the stress or u didnt make it past the orientation period that u had to be let go. I've done it before. Employers always are afraid i wont stay after orientation or my skills are horrible that i had to get booted off before 6 months. Hope this helps
