Take job or not?

I'm currently claiming JSA.
I have an interview for a not-so-great job on Monday.
I also have an interview for a job I'd really love, but it's not for another three weeks.
The thing is, if I take the first job, I'd no longer be eligible for the second job (it's government funded, with a requirement that you must have been claiming JSA for however many months), so I can't just take it and quit if I'm offered the second job.
Suppose I'm offered the first job, then what? I seriously doubt they'd be prepared to wait 3+ weeks before I decide if I want to accept.
So, if they demand that I commit immediately, what if I refuse? Would my JSA be stopped? (if I didn't get the second job either)
Any suggestions, please?

You havn't even been for interview yet. If you really don't want the not-so-great job then I'm sure you know what to do in interview to enure you are not offered the job.:footie:
