I just graduated from college this year and I’ve been blessed to receive several job offers. I obtained my dream job, but the salary as an entry level employee isn’t very sufficient. I received an offer for a remote position, so I was wondering if it would be possible to manage two full time jobs at the same time if one is remote and the other was on site. Of course, I would make both employers aware and seek permission. I would really appreciate the community’s thoughts on this.

Word of advice, don’t ask for permission. If your schedule allows for you to manage both jobs, just do it. Don’t tell either company. It will only hurt you if you disclose that information.

I want to know what full time WFH job allows you to get all your work done in 10 hrs per week... maybe per day, but per week? Sounds like something is missing.

Seems like you should look at what each jobs will require. If it’s easy to do then yes. But if you feel like you might be stretched just take the remote job. That’s the wave of the future… remote work.
Remote and on-site both offer twodifferent experiences. If you are a self taught and can easily motivate yourself then remote would be ideal. But if you perform better by learning from others especially being new to the field then just focus on the on-site job … get the experience then go find another remote job.

If it’s two remote jobs then I’d say maybe. But one on site and one remote? That’s a logistical nightmare. I would not do that right out of college. No company will agree to let you do that because anything that affects your performance at one job can be grounds for dismissal. So your only option would be to hide it. How would you hide that during on-site work?

If you screw up you could lose both jobs and have nothing at all. Worse yet you’d have to come up with an explanation for why you were fired so early on after graduation. That would be a black mark and might make you less attractive to employers.

Be patient and don’t screw up the beginning of your career. I would pick one, either the on-site or remote. Wait until you have experience under your belt 3-5 years before you attempt to juggle two full time jobs. There’s a lot of things they don’t teach you in college.

If this is your dream job than you want to spend most of your time producing value for this company. If you really need money outside of what you’re currently getting paid than try to find ways to make more revenue without sacrificing as much of your time.

A lot of healthcare companies won’t let you have a second job. Sometimes they make exceptions but I’m guessing maybe a full and part time job would be better…

I think there are multiple reasons why working two jobs is problematic. As an early careerist, the idea that you can perform at a high level with the hope of advancement goes out the window. Secondly, there are legitimate ethical and possibly legal issues with going down this path. If an organization is paying you for a salary position and ever have evidence that you were simultaneously working for another organization, you can possibly get into some legal hot water. I actually had 2 college professors who got into trouble for double dipping.

If this is your dream job and still intrigues you, maybe it’s worth grinding for a year or two and then asking for a raise or advancement opportunities within the organization.

If you need to make neds meet by getting two jobs, it is best that you do this with caution and make sure you know what both of these positions require from you. It is definitely possible and you can do it, we believe in you!

I wouldn't recommend an onsite and remote role at FT hrs for both. Salaried positions definitely come with expectations that you're available those 40hrs, and often require more than 40hrs/wk, plus commuting time. If it's really your dream job, I'd let them know you're seriously considering a remote position due to pay... see how much negotiating you can do. For the right candidate, there's always wiggle room to a point. Maybe y'all can come to a better overall compensation package. If the remote role is hourly, and you can select your hours, it might be more manageable, but most remote roles also expect you to be available during normal business hours... and in my experience, remote roles tend to have more spontaneous mandatory meetings you have to be able to jump on because of the expectation you're available...I'd recommend doing one that matters the most to you (dream job, or better pay). Supplement income in other ways if necessary, but if it's really a dream job, negotiate first, you never know if you don't ask. Tell them what it would take and see if they can meet you there.
