Applied at Job A for Unknown

I’m currently in a bit of a dilemma regarding my job search. I’ve been going through a lengthy hiring process with my top choice, Job A, for a couple of weeks now. I completed the final panel interview two weeks ago and was initially told I would hear back by last Tuesday. However, I just received an update that the decision has been pushed to either this week or next week, and I still haven’t heard anything. In the meantime, I received a verbal offer from Job B, but I haven’t received a firm written offer yet. I’m considering reaching out to Job A to let them know about the verbal offer from Job B to potentially speed up their decision-making process. I want to express my continued interest in Job A without coming off as too pushy or pressuring them. I’ve heard mixed advice on this. Some say it can be helpful to mention another opportunity to encourage a quicker response, while others warn it might backfire. I really want Job A to be my next role, so I’m hesitant to do anything that might jeopardize that chance. I just feel like the waiting is becoming too much, and I need to make a decision soon.
