Take a turbo-prop job or wait for a better one?

I've got an interview coming up for a job but I'm not sure wether I should accept or not if I'm offered the position. I currently have about 2000h from instructing, about 400h of these are ME.

The job is to fly an older turbo-prop twin >20 tonnes but it will only get me about 350-450h per year. The pay is ok but nothing spectacular.

I feel my career might be slowed down a bit if I take this job although it would provide some much needed twin turbine time to my CV for future job hunting.
I might have an opportunity for an interview at a much more interesting company in the beginning of next year but that would mean that I have to decline this position.

Any input on this?
