I went through a background check before my SA stint last year. Will I have to go through another one before my FT? (same bank)
If so, are the background checks the same?

WTF is with all these background check questions? Every day there is another one of them. Is it that hard for people to not fuck up or lie on their resume? What kind of morons are in this industry?
prospective analyst constantly seem to be suffering from Paranoia, its normal..
Everyone jut calm down... I'm not paranoid about anything. The reason I'm asking is because I'm wondering if I will have to digg out the same info as I did before my SA stint. I had to provide them with specific salary information that I have since lost. It took a lot of phone calls to get that info last time, that's all.
Chill.
So if you did it for your SA stint, wouldn't it make sense to have to do it again for FT? Just thinking...
Of course it doesn't make sense. Why would they double check everything again? With the exception of my final transcript, nothing has changed since the last time they did it. Just saying...
Pretty sure FT checks are more comprehensive than SA checks. Even if they weren't, it would be pretty good practice to do proper DD.
