Is it right to turn down a job offer?

Many people are still struggling with finding a job following the recession. Often you will hear people say that you can not be chooses when it comes to employment and you should grab any job opportunity with both hands. This can be the case if you are desperate for work and need an income instantly, but if you are able to spend a little bit more time job hunting then you may not always take the first job you are offered.
When looking to apply for a new job position, not only should you consider if you have the relevant experience and qualifications but also is it a job that you would be happy doing? If the answer is no then you probably shouldn’t even apply.
Too many people get stuck in jobs that they despise and that is not good for the employee or the employer as the quality of work produced is likely to be low and it can also have a knock on affect on other members of staff.
