Q1: What is the opportunity cost of each decision? (That's a fancy economic term for 'How much money, time, energy, frustration, self-esteem, employability/marketability, etc. would it cost you to turn down the offer and keep looking and hoping for something else?')
Q2: (equally important) Do you like the job itself? (not the pay, but the duties, the company, the people, the progression of your career, etc.) Can you be happy and content there 6 months from now when friends start finding jobs for the money you were hoping to get? Free advice. Hope it helps. Good luck to you.
