If you’re contacting a hiring manager about a job opening, do you match the tone of their posting? For example, if they describe the job very casually and with humor, should my email be more casual?

Yes. Not overly so, but that’s definitely the place to inject more personality

They won’t even read it anyway , 90% chance

I'm holding an offer from MakeMyTrip and another offer from OlaElectric. Ninjacart is willing to make me an offer. But they're saying that they'd discuss the offer only after the other company that I'm interviewing with has come up with an offer first. There's been a delay from HRs of the companies in a similar way. How do I urge them to send me the offer letter without sounding pushy? I had reached out to some of the HRs myself. Would that be too awkward if I accept & back out their offer?

I’ll of course prep for the interviews but am afraid to burn potential bridges if I ultimately decline because I’m still figuring things out.
