Having two jobs when transitioning from F-1 OPT to H-1B?

I’m currently working two full-time jobs at companies A and B under F-1 OPT. Both companies registered me for the most recent H-1B lottery. I was just informed that my H-1B registration for company A was selected, but not for company B. Do I have to quit my job at company B to move forward with the H-1B petition for company A and when would be the best time to quit (e.g., as soon as possible, before the petition is filed, before Oct 1st)? Thank you very much!

Hi! I went to Canada for a short trip but when I entered to the US the CBP officer didn’t stamp my entrance on my passport. He updated my i94 tho. Do you think that NOT having the passport stamped would affect my application? Thanks
