Bank of America Summer
Do you guys know at what point they conduct a background check? Before or after an offer?
Also, what do they check in a background check?
I had an overseas "favor internships" (more like volunteering) at a non-profit where I designed and maintained their website for 2 years. The guy who was in charge of me was already gone and since it's non-profit there's no payroll and no record of my existence in the organization. Would that be a red flag?
If anyone ever went through the process, or know much about the background check process for SAs, would be great to hear from you
Don't know about BoA specifically, but it will come after they make an offer and you accept - they don't want to waste time running a background check on someone who might reject them. The background check basically consists of showing up to pee in a cup and signing a number of forms with your past employment history - you should be able to just exclude the nonprofit, as it was not technically employment. If you have concerns though, just be proactive and email HR, don't ask us
You basically go in and they finger print you, and have you sign a few papers. No drug test, as of yet, but I'm pretty sure they will. Goodluck. I went in a few days ago.
is there an employment check? What do you fill out? Do you leave out non-profits?

I'm doing IBD at BOAMER this summer as a SA, and I've already gone through both an employment check and a criminal check in the past few weeks.
I haven't been notified yet if I "passed" or not, yet.
heard bofa is chartered in cali, i.e. no drug screen. not 100% on this, but i hear from last year's summers that they weren't tested. dunno if it applies to merrill.
BofA is one of the few BB's that don't drug test, or at least have not in previous years.
As with all of my posts on this board, this is based on what my friends that work there/interned there have told me.
There was no drug test.
Could anyone confirm whether there is a drug test for ML SA's?
I was a summer at ML 2008. They did drug test at headquarters in NY.
Any idea if the HK summer interns have drug testing requirements? I haven't had anything sent to me (I'm abroad at the moment as well).
Same. I asked above because I haven't gotten anything from ML regarding a drug test. I have already signed pre-employment papers. I only need to go to the headquarters to get my fingerprints and turn my my I9, is that when they drug test?
I posted before that I went last week and they didn't take a drug test.
My bad. Even though ML is basically BOA, I wasn't sure if they they have different testing policies. I know Merrill typically tests, but not B of A. I guess that is somewhat good to hear, since most of my friends got drug test info in their offer letter or at least have some warning that they will be tested. Only one small line says that they will drug test me, depending on location, but nothing firm.
