After job-hunting for two months, Jessica had to choose between two alternatives for employment, a fashion magazine and a clothing store. She already had _______ job offers from both employers. They planned to make the offers definite after they were able to _______ the information on her job application. 
     In the meantime, Jessica thought about the good and bad points of the two jobs. Both offered the _______ that she liked; she hated doing the same thing every day. Both had good benefits, such as sick leave and vacation time. However, the two companies would not _______ her equally. At the clothing store, Jessica would start out at a _______ salary--not as much as she had hoped for. With her many expenses, she might even have to find a part-time job in the evenings to _______ this salary. But there were other reasons for taking this job. Working for the store, Jessica would be free to put her many ideas into practice right away. Her manager said he would not _______ any attempts she might make to move up in the company. In fact, he promised that if here work was good, he would endorse a promotion for her within a few months. At the fashion magazine, Jessica's starting salary would far _______ what she would get paid at the clothing store--she wouldn't have to worry about money at all. But the prospects of getting promotions and raises were not so definite. 
Jessica could _______ of both jobs as learning experiences and also felt she could _______ much satisfaction from either one. This would not be an easy decision.
