Day 133....

Time to update about my job hunting! Lalala~ so anyway, some of you may know.. several agencies have called me and offered me jobs. So far, I've only been to 4 agencies officially for an interview. The earliest one was Success (Ferlyn), Recruit Express (Doreen), Kelly Services (Jason) and last but not least, JAC Recruitment (Madeline). So far the agents that i've met were quite good to me so lucky me! ^^ I haven't accepted any jobs from Jason but i only went there for an interview because he wanted to know what kind of job i was looking for and give me some advice. After that interview, i thought he was a pretty good agent. And so he was when he proved to me on Tuesday.
So anyway, for the past 3 days, I've been to interviews at 3 different places. On Tues, I went to JAC Recruitment for an interview with Madeline. On my way there, Jason called me again to offer me another job but this time an IT job. (BTW, he's not from the IT department but he promised to pass my resume around his company to keep a lookout for me for IT jobs and he really did it! Unlike other agents who just call me and say help me keep a lookout but never call back.) So anyway, he said training will be provided and although the job scope is not the one i'm looking for but i thought i just gave it a shot and go for the interview.
So on Wed which is yesterday, I went to Tuas to look for Singapore Epson (the IT job that i applied through JAC recruitment) for the interview. And since the job i applied for is web programming, so definitely they will test me on my programming skills. A little difficult for me because my skills are like so rusty but i thought the interview went quite well.. i guess. =\ Took more than 1 hour for that interview which is most probably because of the test.
Then today went for another interview at Raffles Place at Citibank at Capital Square. This morning i totally forgot about the interview until i called Jason to ask about it. ^^;; The ambience was not bad so i thought i was quite relax there because i didn't really thought much about this job. But i think the interview went quite alright, at least i'm not as tense as yesterday. So now i'm waiting for both jobs' reply.

Now the problem is... if let's say both jobs want me, which should i go for?
Tuas (Singapore Epson) - Position: Web Application Support. Pay is $1700. Madeline said that there will be an increment in pay after 3 months, based on my performance. Transport is provided (Like a school bus which sends me to work and home after work. And the bus stops at my house *at least that's what Madeline said*) and this means i can save on transport fee *provided i am not late and miss the bus*. Working hours is abit early, 7.50am to 5+ *i can't remember the time*. Contract is 1 year and renewable. The job scope is more of like web programming which is something that i wanna do and something that my classmates said i was good at.
Raffles Place (Citibank) - Position: Bank Officer. Pay is $2000 or even higher. Training is provided. Working hours is 8+ to 5+ *i can't remember the time either*. Contract not clear because the interviewer said it was a 3 months contract while Jason said it was a 6 months contract and renewable. From what the interviewer briefed me, the job sounds a little like data entry but a little different because from what i know, i'm supposed to come up with reports and key in entry and etc. It's not totally an IT job because i am not required to do programming but i will need to use MS Excel and MS Access most or all the time. Banking and marketing knowledge is not needed. Although the job scope is not what i'm looking for but when i was in school, i enjoyed my DOA class (DOA is the module which i studied MS office) and my friends and colleagues said it was something i was good at. So i didn't mind this job.

Any advice which job i should take if both jobs accept me?
