Email hiring manager at B and advise him of the situation. You prefer B but need to make a decision by X date

Slight adjustment to OW1's statement then. Don't include the date and let them know that you want to be transparent with them and that you are currently in the process with another company and you're wanting to know more about their timelines (e.g. how many more rounds, when are they planning to have someone start, etc).

It let's them know they're not the only ones looking at you and they need to get their act together. They will appreciate the heads up and transparency and hopefully it's reflected in their offer.

Then don’t do it. I thought you viewed A’s offer as viable but less preferred. You don’t need to be manipulative

I doubt if any of these are really great ideas. OP when it comes to hiring, “never be the first to push the envelope” it’s a simple rule of thumb!! You say your say ur pay first, u r in d losing seat, u push for some values first, you resume n meet some perception issues down d line (especially C-suite up). My thoughts: if you must shake or try to push just do a simple follow up email or better still call? What you say may b forgotten. What you write wouldn’t

Last week someone said they already had an offer from another company and wanted to expedite our hiring process. We did not pursue with him as he was not a superstar. In the normal scenario he would have given abother interview and an offer.

wants me to meet one of his colleagues and then wants to fly me out to meet their CTO. So it looks very promising 🙏🏼. I haven’t heard from him since we talked last, and prefer company B over A. What should I do?

What’s the problem? Does company A ask you to accept today?

Problem is Company A’s offer is garbage and I wouldn’t accept it regardless. I just want Company B to move faster and I’m thinking this offer can expedite the process. But don’t want things to get sticky.

Do what OW1 said

If I did what OW1 said, would I be starting a fire for no reason? Really don’t want to lose out on this, I’m definitely not taking Company A’s offer

^ alright, in that case I’ll keep my mouth shut lol

A3, mind explaining why you pulled the plug after hearing that?

In similar boat, but I used one verbal offer to expedite my interview process for a more preferred position/firm

SC1, How’d you let the company know? Just shoot them an email with a date deadline type of thing?

I was scouted through an independent recruiter so I told the recruiter that I had a good verbal offer already but this new position aligns even better to my career aspirations. I asked her to help move things along

Then I think of all the people my age who are appear to be doing those things and wonder we what’s wrong with me.

My current salary is under market average for my position but based off my coworkers’ negative experiences with asking for raises/promotions, I’m not really sure how to go about starting the conversation with my manager. There’s also a rumor going around that the company is going to scale back on our marketing efforts even though our VP tells us a different story. Either way I need more money and I just want to have that conversation before I begin looking for a new job.
