Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES should you tell the people who have offered you the position at the moment that you are considering another offer. I can't imagine any good coming of that. That would be an excellent way to have that offer removed and given to someone else. Even if you accept the job you are doing so under an awkward cloud from day one. They have absolutely no need to know your thought process.

I think employment law states that an offer can't be withdrawn once offered - it's up to the recipient of the offer to accept or decline.

Plus, everyone these days is applying to multiple places and supervisors know and understand that. It's a legitimate reason to delay acceptance of an offer.

I think that is only true once the job offer has been accepted.
