Interview - Do I Go? :o

Well I've been offered an interview to go and work for a new airline... only problem is, I'd be based in Africa! Not 100% sure if I should go for it or not. The contracts a lot better than my current one but I just don't know

I assume that would involve you moving and living in Africa? I don't know really. I know you didn't want to move to Germany that much either and at least Berlin is close to the UK (sort of). Which part of Africa is it?

Kieran · 18-12-2012, 03:50 PM

Dar Es Salaam.

Would you be required to live there?

Personally would prefer Berlin to Africa but yeah

Hmm its a tricky one really, I hate making big decisions like this in life haha, could go either way I guess.

I guess its important to just do what you enjoy doing in life really, regardless of if it means a few extra hours flying to get home etc. Africa could be a really good experience, not sure what the place you're going to is like but it could be lovely, and you could meet some awesome people.

Depending on how much better the contract is than your current one, perhaps you should go for it, for the opportunities, since they don't come around all too often, and yeah. It also depends how happy you are where you are currently based, and if you can deal with the stress of moving again and stuff. You seem really good at travelling and going to new places so I guess its all part of the adventure and if you geta better contract out of it then thats a good thing too.

The contract is like 100x better than my current one. Dar es Salaam has a massive expat community so I don't think settling in there would be a problem. I think it's just the whole big move to another continent
