I have a job offer for 3 months that pays 25% more than my current job. It is more into civil engineering and I think the experience I get will help getting more job offers in the future. Can someone give me more advice if I should stay in my current job which I hate or take the offer and look for something at the same time.

It really depends on the type of civil engineering work what you are doing. If you feel at your current job all you are doing just drawings without understanding anything and you hate the job then take the new job.
