How do you decide which project to take? Really torn between 2 rn.

Lol, take whatever the longer one is at this point

Whichever *team* you would rather be a part of. Work is always work. But working with a group of people you like spending 50 hours a week with and working for someone who will support you is the most important factor

This!

In which would you learn the most?

likehelpful

Right now? The one with the client least likely to cancel. Some place with deep pockets and a long timeline?

Consider personal development opportunities. Where will you gain the skills you’re looking for?

The one with the best travel destination once this mess clears up

This is ridiculous but I just looked it up and it’s like 1 min difference on google maps. I didn’t actually realize these projects are almost identical lol

OP, what do these two projects do??

like

Don’t want to reveal too much for confidentiality but they’re similar kinds of work

Both are equally long and secure (mission-critical stuff). Definitely those would be deciding factors for me in other scenarios, but any other criteria for this situation?

Coin flip?

Longest one

Both, I’m on three long term FY engagements and rarely work on just one. It’s manageable

Not an option for me. These are both full-time and I have to pick

Congrats on having options! I agree with C2. It’s all about the people. You want to work with a collaborative team in a safe environment and get the opportunities you want/need on your path to the next level
