How long can you take/ask for to respond to an offer from an industry job? I want to give some of my other prospects a good shot but want to keep the first option open.

Doesn't your offer have an expiration date? It's usually 1 week, max. If you want to try to extend it, a trick is to start to negotiate the terms of the contract and/or tell them this is your number one offer but want to have an attorney review it, etc.

1-2 weeks is the standard unless it’s a niche position and they don’t have other strong candidates. In that situation they may be willing to wait longer.

Brand Planning/Tactical Planning is a tough time of the year to be a mid-level Account person (Account Exec, Account Man, Account Sup). That’s because we’re encouraged to participate—and we want to (it’s good professional development too..)—but we are also expected to keep our many projects moving (as project leads). During these few weeks, I feel like I’m doing 2 jobs:one during the workday, sitting in ideation sessions, and then another at night catching up on projects. Any tips? Relatable?

Offer help. I have 3 years in consulting and make 140k. I was laid off from ACN Strategy as an analyst and able to sell myself hard to another company. ACN wants me back, and will match my salary, but I am also getting offers from Firms for around 210 from different “boutique” consultancy and some T2.

Should I go back to ACN, make manager and look for an exit?

Should I join Deloitte Strategy as a SC make manager and exit?

Should I go to one of the boutique as a manager for 210 base?
