<p>A paid part time job with about 100 service hours or approximately 300 service hours while never having a job? Also this job would be a promotion from a volunteer position to a paid position (I don't know if that makes a difference.)</p>
<p>They are about equal, the both show dedication and responsibility. Pick what you will enjoy. Personally I chose the former (I am now a paid intern where I used to volunteer), but I also had more hours to begin with.</p>
