Take whichever offer comes first. 2-3 interviews left is still a long way to go and has no guarantee of landing a final offer, but when you get an offer ask for more time to decide + push your dream agency to move faster saying that you have a verbal offer from another place
great advice. thanks!
Delay delay delay the first agency as long as you can. Make excuses until you see how the 2nd agency situation is progressing. Don't let your dream job slip through your fingers!
As a former recruiter, I advise against that in this job market. This is an employer’s market, not a candidate’s market. Delays tell recruiters that they’re not your top choice. If they’re talking to a hiring manager who’s weighing a decision between multiple candidates, they’ll share which candidates are delaying or seem uninterested, and who they feel is most passionate and interested in the job, because that’s usually an indicator for whether they’ll accept an offer or if they have their eyes set on something else. And while you’re delaying, they’ll keep interviewing other candidates, so you may cost yourself an opportunity. There’s too much great talent looking for work right now to chase after someone who doesn’t seem that interested, unless you’re at the executive level.
Rather, tell the dream agency that you’re interviewing elsewhere and you remain very interested in them, but the other opportunity is progressing and you’re in the final interview stages. If they really like you and are serious about hiring, they’ll pick up the pace. If they don’t, or they tell you they can’t move forward, you’re not their top choice.
Good luck!
Be upfront with the one you really want that you're actively interviewing. It may help them speed things up a bit

Look, I know someone who had already accepted an offer with relocation package and everything. This person was in the airport ready to move across the country, when her dream offer from an agency in Paris called. Literally at the airport . She accepted it and took the offer and just said “sorry” to the other agency. The agency wasn’t happy about it, but they just moved on to another candidate they had. She moved to Paris and lived there for years and met her husband there.
So, if you get the other offer later, just take it. Fuck it.
Take the job with the agency you’re further down the road with and then quit if your dream job materializes. You owe these companies nothing. Plus, the market is so terrible right now, they’ll find another creative to replace you in a heartbeat.
I’ve accepted an offer before and then reneged on it after getting a better offer elsewhere. If agencies can pull back an offer after they’ve sent one, which I’ve heard of happening, you can too. Definitely not best practice, though, and you might burn a bridge. Others’ advice about telling the dream agency you’re interviewing elsewhere to speed them up is probably the right way to go.
