How do you manage multiple job offers?

Imagine this scenario: You receive an offer from one company, but you are hoping for an offer from another company next week. What's the best way to navigate that situation? Should you tell company #1 that you are waiting on another offer?

Manage multiple offers? I can’t even get one offer.

That's a tough one... I don't think I would tell company #1 about company #2, but I would have to tell them something to give myself more time. I feel like this happens almost every time I'm up for a job! It's a bit stressful, and you don't want to lie or leave a company high and dry...

The best offer may or may not be your best job or option.

It's a bit of a catch-22, until I get the second offer from another company, it'll be hard to officially give an answer to the first company. But I think we could negotiate by telling them the truth and let them know you are excellent.
