Did you already respond to them? Anyway, if you haven't yet set up the interview, at least go on the interview. It'll be good practice to interview. Even if you don't take this job, the practice in interviewing will make it easier for you to get another job.

@LaylaTheTallGirl Also, I'm thinking of a time when I took a job in a city where I didn't really want to move, and I kept the job for a year and a half. Since I took that inconvenient job and got that experience, I was able to get another job which ended up paying me three times as much. So, I tell that story as a way of pointing out that it might be worth it in the long run to take this job now.

Also, that first job I took gave me such invaluable experience that it's qualifying me for every single job I'm applying for this year, even though I held that job more than 20 years ago!
