Anyone else here having to wait a while/had to wait a while in the past? My background check has been going for over 5 weeks and still no response. Should I call them?

 

Are you an incoming associate? Maybe it's because I am an incoming analyst. I also interned there so they may have my info already. It took about 1-2 months?

 

Hi, did you hear back? I have similar situation as yours. By the way, do you know if they will also ask the previous employers about our working attitudes, etc? Thanks!

 

Mid July, but it seems crazy that you would start in two weeks and they wouldn't have finished by now. Definitely weird.

 

I'm not sure. I was talking with a few other people who all said their bosses from before have not been contacted yet to verify previous employment. Maybe that comes later?

 

Hi, I'm also an incoming analyst and mine has been going on over the past 10 weeks... I have an international background and will have to relocate to a new country in a month. I haven't even purchased the flight tickets yet, since I'd prefer to purchase once the BG check is cleared. Should I be concerned? Any comment will be appreciated.

 

Did anyone get their relocation check in the mail? I imagine this would only come after the background check is cleared.

 

@ mrchow: No, I haven't even received a preliminary approval... now mine has been going on for 11 weeks. But I was told that some people's BG checks haven't cleared even a week before the commencement of work... My starting date is still a few weeks away from now, so I assume I may have to wait a little longer...

 

Anyone here about former employers being contacted? I still have not heard from any of my references about being called and I'm getting a bit nervous.
