Is it peak hiring season now? HR not replying?

Guys I am at the clearance stage (Tbh near final stage liao I think), but I happened to have another offer along the way. Might have to make a decision soon. How uh? I still want the offer from mindef side la…. But feel like it’s taking quite long. Plus anything can happen as long as I have yet clear the security clearance stage right…. Like got risk la haha. Should I mention it to the hiring manager and see if they can speed up the process? Any advice? Thanks!

That could also kind of show that you not the top candidate they actually want right? I dk about others, but I feel that if they really want to offer you, won’t straight away drop the candidate but rather communicate or if both sides can work something out.

Why risk it? Accept the other offer and move on.
