How long is too long to respond to a job offer?

Be aware that in some situations, rather than offering a timeline themselves, they might respond by asking you how long you think you'll need. If that happens, one week is generally considered pretty normal. Ask for more than a week and you risk sounding like you're simply waiting to see if a better offer comes along.
