you tell everyone up front what your timeline is, months ahead of time. that way, all of them coincide and you get maximum leverage.
last job search i got 4 offers to line up that i could use in negotiations.

Honestly curious how this conversation goes, like "I'm busy with xyz for the next four weeks, then I can do round two of interviews..." or how does that go?
one company offered to give me an offer early but warned that it would expire before my timeline. i told them they can give me an offer whenever but I will not be making a decision before the timeline i communicated. they ended up giving it to me early anyway and then extending the expiration when I said I hadn't made a decision by their original date.
