NWR: Need help - job stuff - long!

Ok, so my fh living in Boston. He moved up there to go to hahhhhvahd biz school a few weeks ago ( )

Back in July I had decided that I was going to stay in NY (my job, family friends are here), while he moved up to Boston. It was going to be tough, but we'd be fine. I started really hating my current job in August, so I wanted to start looking for a new job (still in NY). I started sending out my resume. I found my DREAM job, and sent my resume out to them, but I never heard back. After looking around for 2 months, continuing to hate my current job, and not hearing back from jobs that I've wanted to pursue in NY, I've decided to move to Boston (this october).

So of course, you can guess what happened today!!!!!!! I got a phone call from my dream job (2 months later!!!!!!!!!! ). 'Hi, you sent us your resume in JULY, and we want to bring you in for an interview.' ARGH!! So I've already made up my mind to move to Boston, we're in the process of giving up our NY apartment, and I'm packing up everything I own.

To make it more complicated, they have a sister office in Boston that is hiring the SAME POSITION. Is there some way that I can tell the NY office that I'm interested in the organization, and the position, but I'm moving to Boston, and want to interview there...?!?? Do you think they would pass on my resume? Should I go and meet with them anyway?

What should I do??????

I would go and meet with them anyway.....if they like you that much...mention what happened, and see if they would offer you the job up in boston...can't hurt to try...

edit: make sure to consider where you both want to live after your married...if its in NY...then I would take the NY job and just let him go to school up in boston and stay here..
