Question: recruiter asked me if I’m actively interviewing with other firms atm and whether I would consider a counter offer from EY if I was offered a job with the new employer. What’s their intention in this? Does saying that I would not accept counter offer make me less desirable?

They want to know if you are using them to pit them against EY. Basically if you will actually leave or not or if you are using the recruiters time and resources as a bargaining chip.
