I applied to a job at FTI in one group and didn’t hear back so I reached out to a colleague who recommended I just apply for another group. I then got an interview request from the first one. Would you disclose to both recruiters that you’re talking to another group, just advise the one I want less that I’m talking to another group I think is a better fit, or let both ride?

Cross-posting: Im trying to flip a new build - long story, but have had certain circumstances come up and can't keep the home - but I'm now competing with the builder because they have homes still being built in the neighborhood (there is nothing against me selling it). They have started offering added incentives and low balling due to market conditions. What do I have and what can I do to sell mine? Or should I give up and just rent it out and wait? Any advice appreciated.
