I'd say tell your bosses you have another offer and force them to make a decision sooner, or at least some sort of guarantee. If that doesn't work and you can't afford to wait around, I'd say go for the other position. My 2 cents!

: I am in a government position which involves alot
: of red tape and the like. They are just starting
: to hire after the major downsizing of the early
: 90's. I have been there for 5 months under an
: internship program and have 7 months to go. I am
: told that my performance is great and they have a
: need for my position and asked me if I would be
: interested once my internship ended. I said this
: would be great. Because of all the government
: hassle and red tape involved, the hiring process
: is very long and frustrating. They have to screen
: if the job can apply to those layed off in earlier
: years, plus making it a fair process for all. But
: I know that if a manager wants you to work for them, something can be done...They are moving really slow on it, beleiving that I can wait and
: would not have anywhere else to go. Now I just got another offer from another govt dept, lower
: work but officially in the organization, and I
: would move up quite quickly. But I LOVE what I
: do at my present job. WHat do I do? Take the
: chance and leave?? Stay and trust my bosses, or
: blackmail them to move it?? Let me know asap

: Thanks
