"Hey, I'm really excited about this opportunity, but I have a couple other interviews lined up with other firms. If there's anything you can do to move the process quickly, I would appreciate it. I'll make myself available anytime that works for the people on your end."

If you make it to the HR phone screening phases you can mention you have some firms that are about to make some offers and you would appreciate an excelerated interview process IF THAT IS THE TRUTH. Never lie about incoming offers and don't flaunt some other interviews just for the sake of it... interviews mean nothing to them at this point.

SC1 - agree, I think if they are close to making an offer they should totally share that. I just think calling Bain up and saying "hey I had an HR screening call with BCG" when they have a million rounds...may be too premature is all. Just my personal opinion.

CFP study programs:

Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?
