I’m in an interview process with two companies - I believe just had my final interview with one and have another final scheduled. The outside recruiter is very communicative but the internal recruiter (for the other position) has not communicated with me at all on timeline or expectations of offer/rejection timing (I’m not even sure that was the final interview). What is a respectful way of asking the timeline because of another active interview process?

I think you can just be straightforward and say, Dear X, I am very interested in the position. Can you provide some additional details about the interview/hiring timeline as I am in the process of other interviews as well. Something short and to the point is good, you don't need to overcomplicate it!

Like it. Short but on point

Something along the lines of wanting to check in regarding next steps and the expected timeline for the role. You are excited and interested. Up to you if you want to include that you are in the final stages of another interview process.

I only received the job offer letter from the consultancy, but no Appointment Letter is given yet.
So since it's 10-15 day, since I joined. Can I leave this company, since I've got a better offer, with my suitable location.
PS: I have also received the laptop, but didn't login or do anything yet.
Please help me, can I still leave the company? And return the laptop to them. Or I have to continue here itself?
