  Tell the interviewer you already have a job... be honest lar, you don't want to create a bad impression on both sides~

  Not teaching you to be bad, but if verbally, then you can tell the company A nicely that you want to wait before you sign the appointment letter, then go to company B and then assess your chances
  
  if not, then you see which company better and accept it as hang cheng pai now, better to have a bird in hand than two in the bush but must also see whether the bird in hand is worth it or not lah

  That means this company is full of shit or else you can set a time to come down and sign the appointment at a later date and then see whether got chance to go for the second job interview
  
  but now when times are bad, i guess companies can tekan employees in anyway they want

  Well it doesn't mean that an interview gurantee you an offer right? I would suggest you just go for the interview, then if an offer comes, you weigh the pros and cons of both. After all, even though you start first at the current company, you are under probation right? Probation period easier to get out, cook up an excuse say the job is not right for you, blah blah, then you jump over loh. It works, I've tried it before But then, of course, dont even think of going back to the old company if you find that the new one isnt as good as you think. haha
