Asking for help does make you sound more humble. Yes, the recruiter would like interpret your question as positive interest in the role as long as you ask correctly/well.

Yes! The recruiter is your resource!
I agree that it’s like a behavioral/fit interview due to the setting

I personally would keep it more vague, but that’s me, I’m sure it’s not an obscene request...

I got a full time offer from the company I interned at this summer. However, I have been applying and interviewing at various consulting firms so far.

I don’t wanna burn a bridge with this company since I really enjoyed my experience there but I have to be smart with my decision since I graduate in December and need an earlier work start date.
