I got an offer from company A but I’m more interested in company B, who I’ve had one interview with so far. I think I’m going to turn down A regardless. Is there any benefit to telling B I got an offer from another company but that they are my top choice?

Yes! I’ve seen companies expedite their process a LOT for a candidate that’s under a time crunch.

I second what SD1 says. It might also give you room to up your salary and benefits, but I wouldn’t tell Company B that they’re your favourite. Keep some cards close to your chest (and good luck 🙂)

Yeah- you should definitely let company B know you have an offer on the table and you have time let them know soon. Either way, you should get a Y or N from them soon.

If you want to speed up the process with Company B, then go for it.
