Without giving away too much information... I interviewed for a position a few days ago that is pretty much my dream job. It went well but I just got the feeling like maybe they already have someone in mind for the position. Today I recieved a tenative offer for a different school AND for a position I never interviewed. I did interview at this school several months ago, again for a different position. I would really prefer the "dream job" but do not want to miss my opportunity because the other job is good too. Suggestions, advice?

Chris Thanks everyone. This really is a sticky situation. I contacted the principal at my "dream job" and was told that I was selected. I am starting to think that there was a mix up at HR. I did contact HR in the hopes to get things sorted out before I lose any opportunity.

jgray1278 @Chris- The principal only recommends candidates. They would have no control if HR actually picked you or not.

HelpOthers HR will only allow one offer. It sound like the non-dream job beat the dream-job to the offer.

ecd5 Sounds like a typo in your tentative offer. Maybe HR copied and pasted and forgot to update the location/position?

educatormama I accepted a position and received my official offer and then was offered another position that I interviewed months before. I called HR and they told me I got to choose which position I wanted. Wait to get your response from HR before making your decision if time allows.
