Anxiety about IB SA Background Check Potential Issues
So I just received the 2020 IB offer from a BB, and am going to go through the background check. But there’re two potential issues I’m concerned about:
1) I listed the Dean’s List on my resume but didn’t mention the year because I was running out of space. I was on the list in 2018 but not 2019. However, I did supply my transcript with all the details when I submitted the application for the internship in the very beginning. I still have solid 3.8/4.0 GPA tho.
2) When I submitted application months ago, I was doing an internship, so the end date of that job was “Present” on my submitted resume. But before I received this current offer, I quit the previous internship. I did inform the interviewers about this when they asked if I was still working but haven’t spoken with HR.
Not sure if I have something to worry about. I’d grateful if anyone could share opinions. Tx
Don’t worry. Your submitted resume is not likely to be referenced at all. Background check partners only use the information you provide them (in your employment application post offer) with to vet your background. Plus, deans list would never be looked into. At the EOD, they’re confirming GPA, dates, titles, criminal history. That’s it. Just fill out the employment application with the most up to date info and you’ll be fine.
Relax man, they don't care about any of that.
