Background Check Question- London IB
Hi all,
am currently a masters student in Europe,
was recently able to snag two summer internship offers from BBs in London. While reading the terms of the contract, I noticed that I would have to undergo a background check which requires my past 5 years of addresses and employment. After graduating from undergrad, I was unfortunately unemployed for a 6 month period before beginning my masters.
My questions are:
1) what is the best way to phrase this on the background check form? 2) will this pose any problems for me in the background check process? ((everything on my resume (grades, dates, employment etc) is completely accurate, just no explicit mention of unemployment))
They will not ding you for this. Did you do anything productive during this time? Volunteer or travel? Whatever you do don't lie and say you were working or taking classes, no point in this. They will not retract an offer because of 6-month unemployment. However, you may have issues if you claim you were indeed working or in class during this time and get caught...
Teach yourself a foreign language and then tell them you spent that time teaching yourself a foreign language.
\its fine, jsut say you were actively looking for employment during that time period

Don't worry, just fill out the whole form truthfully and you'll be fine
It's a standard inquiry. Exchange/SRO Regs require that you list all employment for a certain period (in US, it is a 10 yr period) and there is no concern if there is a gap in employment. Just list it as unemployed. The key thing is that you can account for your time chronologically and don't leave any gaps.
hi guys, am currently undergoing a background check for a BB in London. Was wondering if you would list "volunteering" under "employment"? Coz technically there was no employer. Thanks!
