I usually say I have a few opportunities one step past I am currently at. HR interview I say scheduled first connect with manager, last interview I say I am expecting an offer.
I always say i am more excited for the one I am interviewing at

I'd say I'm at a few similar stages with other companies but already past the screening call so they feel more urgency.

Tell them the truth about where you are with other processes, but make sure you let them know you're very interested in their company.

I like to tell whatever I am through but I also justify why we both are talking today

be honest. what they wan't to see is if you are finalizing elsewhere, so maybe they can speed up their process

A couple of interviews here and there. Received some offers so far but the comp wasn't comparable to what I currently make.

First, remember recruiters are sales people as well- then tell them whatever makes sense for the situation. If itโs the truth, great. If thatโs a version of the truth, great. Either way theyโre looking to qual you to move on without wasting their time and energy.
