I think it's good to always act like people are interested. You can't accurately judge yourself. People get hired or not mostly on self confidence. I know smartest people who never think they are hireable and always almost surprised when they get paid. They don't value themselves Sure maybe offer is a bit too far, idk. Definitely no way for them to check though. And in all other ways the game is rigged because employer usually has more information than you.

There are a few things worth understanding. If someone wants to work at a startup, Google isn't really going to compete for your offer But if you're going to big tech cos you can get them to compete with each other. Know your audience: say, I'm really excited about the potential of working with you, however I have a few other interviews with comparable public tech companies I'm not ready to make a decision because I want to see that process through, although there exists a number you could tell me that would get me to stop looking immediately. This will probably give you a worse number than you'll get if you actually get the additional offers, but if you don't have them it's a truthful way to indicate they're not quite hitting the mark
