Never stop searching.
Many would say it's a bad sign to stop interviewing even after you're happily employed. There's a difference in approach, say between on-your-knees-desperation and you-need-me-aloof, but you should always be testing your marketability. Even if you have no intention of taking a second offer it'll help you know what qualities are valued and what you may lack. All the better if you have to choose between suitors.

There are a vast number of people who are uninformed and heavily propagandized, but fundamentally decent. The propaganda that inundates them is effective when unchallenged, but much of it goes only skin deep. If they can be brought to raise questions and apply their decent instincts and basic intelligence, many people quickly escape the confines of the doctrinal system and are willing to do something to help others who are really suffering and oppressed." -Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media, p. 195
