I don’t think you need to hide it. It can come to your advantage because the recruiters see you as an immediate joiner.

Makes sense

You don't need to divulge it openly either. They might not expedite your process as you are available. They would give preference to other candidates first and then circle back to you.

Also, might lowball you on salary.

Bring it up only if required.
