After being unemployed for 7 months, I received my first job offer. But, I'm conflicted - the pay and location are far from ideal, and I do have a couple other "irons in the fire" that look promising (but neither is a done deal, by any stretch). The job I've been offered pays $58K ($6K lower than my "target salary" and, from what I can tell, lower than my "market worth") and I'd have a 1.5 hour commute each way. The job is at a nonprofit, so it's hard to tell the market rate.
Accepting this job would mean making big lifestyle changes - I'd have to cut my spending and either move or buy a new car in the next few months (mine is on its last legs). BUT, I don't know when I'll have another offer, and I'm wondering if an even longer employment gap would leave a big scar on my resume. I'm living with family right now, so I have very minimal living expenses, but also my unemployment benefits run out next week.
I'm going to try and negotiate, but I'm trying to weigh whether it'd be unwise to walk away from this offer if I can't get more money. I've been thinking about this nonstop the last two days and am a little close to it... eager to hear others' perspectives.
