If you remain one of the top candidates for their opening at ICON plc, your interviewer wants to gauge if there will be any hiccups in their offer process to you. This question allows them insight into your job search and if they need to move fast if you are their top candidate. It also may help them determine if they need to up the ante when it comes time for a formal offer.

It always puts a little bit of fire under the hiring manager if they are aware that you are actively looking for a new position. Tell the interviewer about your search so far and don't hesitate to be open and honest about your search and where things stand. If you are considering or interviewing for other roles, make sure to let your interviewer know that this role at ICON plc would be your preferred choice.

Perfect! If you're still early in your job search you can also tell the interviewer that you're still exploring available roles. You can also express that while you have applied elsewhere that you're most excited about the role you're interviewing for and why.
