How to ask an potential employer if there is going to be an offer? [duplicate]
After a long job search, I have recently had interviews with two potential employers. Job # 1 has offered me a position. I had my 2nd interview with job #2 recently, and felt like it went really well. I think that job #2 is a better fit. However, the pay offered was below what I could accept, and I was clear in my interview that I would require a 10% increase in salary to accept the position. I have not heard back from job#2 and I need to give job #1 an answer this week. Is there a professional way to ask job #2 if I am still in the running? I was honest with job #1 and told them I am considering another position but I know that they need to fill this position right away.
