I would craft a thank you email that softly hints at questions about "next steps," or (in dire situations) makes some mention of looking forward to receiving the offer letter.

You receive an offer, but it's for the bottom of the posted range. What do you do?

If you exceed the minimum qualifications of the job, you can highlight your additional education/experience and ask for a higher offer that matches it.

If I haven't asked all of the questions and received the answers to verify the position is a fit for me and my career path by the time an offer is made, then I haven't done my part and have wasted their time and mine! If I wanted an offer, I would have been asking them what else they needed to verify that I was the right choice and provided them anything necessary to get that offer. So YES! I would immediately accept the offer and thank them for selecting ME... and assure them that I will do everything I can to make them happy with their choice!!

Not personally, but I just offered a job to a candidate who wasn't able to accept because both of her parents were suddenly hospitalized and she had to travel to care for them.

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?

No you do not, You stay silent until you hear from the other one if your offered or not!! Let’s pretend here, for instincts you turn down the first offer and then you get a call back from the second offer and they decide to also decline you, now your screwed with no offers!! It’s always best to keep your second option open for backup life be really funny like that sometimes
