What is the average time these days that employers give you to accept/sign or reject a written offer? 7 days? Less? I know this is a privilege situation to be in, but I might be (god willing) soon in a situation where I have an offer for a 2nd choice role, while still in early stages interview for a first choice role…

Ask your recruiter

Keep interviewing for the 2nd company, and quit the first if the offer is better.

It's something a lot of people surprisingly do.

Okay finance gurus, I have an idea and interested in your thoughts. Might be a bad one so be gentle 🙂. I have a 2 yr old and another on the way. Need to start planning for college.

But is this a good idea or too risky?
