Q: I’m interviewing for two different jobs and just got an offer for my second choice. Should I just take the offer or tell the first-choice employer about it to expedite their process?

Interviewing for multiple jobs with multiple employers has the structure and feel of a horse race. No two noses are exactly in the same place at the exactly the same time. And no matter how hard a candidate may try, “timing issues” often arise after the first suitor crosses the finish line. Sometimes the predicament is benign, but other times bad timing can greatly influence the direction of a career.
