Any advice?

I have an exploding offer due Wednesday, and had a great final round for another company today (Monday).

I nudged the recruiter for Monday’s interview, letting them know I have a deadline, but no response.

Is it realistic for a company to get you an offer in 2 days turnaround?

Verbal, yes
Worst case you take the exploding and back out. I did that a couple months ago and don’t regret it.

Don’t take the offer just for the sake of accepting something. If you don’t really want the job then just don’t take it

Say yes to the offer on hand, and proceed to your interview on Monday. Compare offers and see which makes sense.

Same thing happened to me, the 2nd company didn’t come through.

Take the offer and then if the other one is better back out

It’s not a marriage proposal. You don’t need to respond on the spot.

You can wait a bit before answering to Wednesday offer. If they give you a deadline, tell that to the Monday company.

Me? 😅

I heard on Reddit you can get an offer the same day.

Exploding offer is so dramatic

Bird in the hand …

It was lower than I expected, and we ended that call positively as I needed some time to consider, and we agreed to follow up in a few days. It’s now been a week and both recruiters have been unresponsive. Did I just lose this offer bc I tried to negotiate a more equitable comp pack, or is it a slow process?
