As A is the place you got an offer before they are either very interested in you or desperate(lack of candidates).

They will have already gone through the "will they fit in" leaving the job fit I suspect they will be interested in is how committed you are this time.
After last time chances are you will get one more go, so don't dither on the job, do a decent amount of due diligence and be clear in your mind yes or no once you know what the job is. if turning it down try to do this before they offer so you keep your options with A open ie. (still want to work for you but not this job.

with B slightly different as it is a much longer time but they probably want to refresh their views on you as well as see if there is a job fit.

its not just the job and company but the package have an idea what you want from that to get you to move to either of them.

I keep an eye on B's website and I notice that the position was available for about 2.5 months now. They are quite picky (and so they should be).

I was thinking about saying to B that there may be an opportunity for me at my current workplace in the next month, so I have to put some more thought into it and that I will be in touch once I know whether this is or is not the case. This is genuinely true. However I still think it is time for me to move on. I realise that A may offer the position to someone else in the meantime - I am more concerned that they will think I am not committed and would not consider me should I go back to them in a few weeks. What are your thoughts?
