How to request a different location after a job offer

manpreet Best Answer 3 years ago

Last month I applied for a customer service job at Airport A and Airport B. After I applied to the same position at two different locations last week, I received an interview call from Airport A and they have offered me the job.

But I would more prefer to work in Airport B which is closer to where I live. At the same time I got an email from Airport B stating:

Due to the high demand of the particular role recruitment process is taking longer than expected

They have also confirmed that my application is still being processed.

What I want I would like to request of them is whether they can offer me the job offer at Airport B instead of Airport A because the same agency is recruiting for both locations.

I guess technically you could accept the offer you've had at Stansted and then wait to see if you get anywhere with the Heathrow position.

If these positions are for the same company / organisation then you might be able to get a transfer in time but for now I'd suggest you take the job you have been offered. Better than risking losing out altogether.
