| Nov 27, 2017 at 8:18 | comment | added | Rob | Job Offer from company A vs. Opportunity from small company B - which to choose. Each day you lose a days profit and they lose a days pay, unless they are currently employed (then they lose the difference). What are the total number of times each person is interviewed and how many people would they imagine you would interview. If it was an offer to go fishing with the person or out to lunch and you said that what should they think/do? - It is polite/professional/SOP but it's sounds like you need to say how great they are and make your best offer or they will accept their best offer. | |

| Sep 29, 2015 at 1:13 | comment | added | Adam Davis | It seems a little confusing. What do you mean by "will not be able to confirm an opportunity" - is that a job offer, or is it merely an interview opportunity? You should be very, very clear on the date you might actually make an offer if possible, or at least state that you would not be able to extend an offer prior to a specific date. Otherwise the response is great. | |
