Do people really have multiple offers while applying somewhere? I can see that for college grads who have time to apply a lot but once you have a full time job how do you find the time to set this up?
- 0898 8y agoYou should always be looking. The best time to look for a new job is before you need one.
- mdorazio 8y agoNot always, but yes it happens quite a bit. These days the interview process for experienced hires tends to be rather lengthy and it's easy to draw it out even farther if you want to. If you're ready to move on and have been hitting up your network and applying to multiple new positions (that you're qualified for), it's not overly difficult to hold off one company making an offer while waiting for another to come through.
- maxxxxx 8y agoHow do you find the time to deal with applications at multiple companies? Between phone screens and interviews that's a lot of time.
- nfriedly 8y agoI usually don't have multiple offers at the same time.. but you don't have to mention the timing. I can honestly say that I've received offers from companies X, Y, and Z - even if all three were in the past and I already turned down all three of them. It's not as good as having them all at the same time, but it's better than nothing.
