Hi there,
So I've been unemployed for 7 months now, my job was made redundant in February. I had a few interviews but no job offer because I do not have any Cloud system experience. Most Companies are now using Workday, SuccessFactor or Oracle, in my last job of 6 years they were using Peoplesoft.
I've been advised to take a pay cut by recruitment agencies which I'm totally open to especially during these tough times but I'm worried this might work against me in the future. I have an interview for a 12 month FTC job that is paying £25k less than my last job next week. It is essentially the same job but they are using a different system.
What would you do if you were in my situation? Hold out and possibly have a bigger gap on your CV or take a significantly lower salary? I'm worried that this would be a red flag for any future hiring managers. I know I'm getting ahead of myself as I've not been offered the job yet.

Am I mad for considering a £25k pay cut for essentially the same job but different Company?
