So I have an offer from one company and I need to make a decision on it by the end of this week. I had an interview with another company and they mentioned that I am a good fit and would like to get another onsite interview. I am excited for this second offer. I feel like it has more room for opportunity and the work may be more enjoyable. The first offer I wouldn't mind doing, but I don't believe it is something that I would want to do for several years. Should I take the first offer and keep talking to the second company. If I get the second offer then rescind the first one and take that? Is that legal/acceptable? This is for my first position after graduation.
Forgot to mention that I already asked for a couple weeks extension for the first offer.
Update: Had second interview, seemed to go very well. I asked when I could hear about a decision made. He said probably 2-4 weeks. I need to decide on my first offer this weekend. Do you think I could ask for another 4 week extension? I've already asked for a 2 week extension 2 weeks ago.
