I got an offer from a company and want to speed up the process at another place I’m interviewing- how do I say this to the recruiter? (I’m 3 interviews in, have two partner interviews left)

Just tell the recruiter - I've received an offer from another firm and while I'm very interested in working for your firm, I need to respond to this other company in a timely manner. This is not new to them and if they're interested in you they'll speed things up.

That’s helpful wording, thanks!

Have you had this experience even when the recruiter is from a recruiting agency/not the company?

Recruited won't get paid if you don't join, so they'll be motivated.

Hi XX,

Just checking in. I’ve really enjoyed my conversations with everyone so far and I’m really excited about this role. As such, could you please advise on any next steps in this process? There’s some urgency to my ask because yesterday I received an offer from another firm, and while I very much prefer the role at XXX, I wouldn’t want to pass up the other role if the XXX opportunity is no longer viable (I’ll need to respond to the other firm by XXX)

Please let me know if there’s any additional information or anything else you need from me in the interim. Thanks again for all your help and I look forward to working together in the near future.

Just tell them. This is common, I have done it myself. Recruiters understand the game.

Thanks in advance!

I'm in the final round of interviews for two internal positions - both vertical. One has FTE's (my first such experience) and the other a much broader scope vs my current role

I had interviewed externally for a role on par w the internal roles, at a smaller and less established company. They confirmed +20% was in their range

How do I push back on my company if they offer less than that, if I do want one of those roles? Without a pay scale, what is the best way to approach?
