    Hi, I have been out of work a long time and recently applied for jobs under 2 different schemes - one is a museum assistant under Community Employment Scheme, and the other is a chamber of commerce Admin Assistant under WPEP scheme. I have been accepted for both but I am having a difficult time figuring out which would be more beneficial in the long run. Ideally, I would like something that will give me more experience and help me secure a more permanent job down the line. Any thoughts would be great!

    WPEP has higher payment, and is a stepping stone to permanent employment. Admin assistant seems to be more versatile and varied as well. Working in the Chamber of Commerce will look better on a CV
