I've done all the job quests as they pop up but mostly its been squadron dungeons. I've been buying some gear here & there or using the ones I've crafted while raising my crafting jobs. The materia is all there too waiting.
Short answer is that it doesn't matter much what type of materia you use. The difference between best and worst choice is only a few percent anyway.
Only when you are getting into on-level Ex and Savage runs does those few percent even begin to matter, and they still matter far less than player skill.
