I'm currently applying to a position at an agency independently and just got a call from my recruiter about a copywriter role for a different project at the same agency. I would take it if I don't get the first one but I'm a little confused as to what to do because the second one seems like it would start immediately but I don't want it as much as the first one. Any advice?

Maybe ask the agency about other opportunities? External recruiters can't put your name forward if you're already in contact. But def level with them, they always have good input on how to go forward.
