I am starting a 4-months internship at a company B in January. However, I just heard from a company T that they will interview me for their full time position.

Company T is paying me way more (twice) than Company B. And I like company T more. However, they want me to start working in February if I get this position. If I end up getting the offer, I will have to quit my internship at Company B, almost immediately after I begin the internship.

Is this okay?

Thread: I’ve been talking to this company for months and the recruiter has been in and out with communication.

He never reached out to set up interviews and hasn’t replied to any of my calls or emails.

Hi all! I recently received an internship offer doing data science/statistics with the Peace Corps.

I’ve struggled with landing other offers.
