Do banks actually ask to see my diploma before I start full time??
So.. I have a question:
I will graduate in late May and I have an offer in IB and will start working full time there in July as an analyst, I was wondering before I officially start, will my bank ask me to scan my diploma or actually bring it to them so that so they can see and know I graduated and actually obtained such a degree outlined on my resume? Or just submit my end of semester transcript is fine? They have already asked my current transcript before I went in for the final round back in Dec.
I have already finished my background check and drug test and so forth currently. But I am not sure how the process works and I am supposed to start training in June.
Thanks!
If they have a problem they can call the college to confirm you graduated.
So basically they don't ask to see new analysts' diplomas??
They might...but all one has to do is call up a college registrar and ask if you graduated. They'll have their answer in less than a minute typically.
pretty sure, generally speaking, companies require your permission to see your transcript. never heard of them asking for a diploma but could be wrong
Thanks - but how could they know for sure that you actually graduated? You tell them you graduated and then that's it? I would think they would want some sort of proof.
As part of my background check I had to send a form confirming I had graduated. Background check was ongoing while I was waiting for final results, so the check didn't actually complete until I sent through the form despite the rest of check finishing weeks beforehand.
Really??
I never knew it was ongoing, interesting!
I thought it was finished in Jan - that's when my contacts and references were called and I also got an email from HR saying that I passed my background check and then they wired me money (a signing bonus)
So I am confused.
By the sounds of it your background check is over. Are offers in the US contingent on a certain GPA / degree award? In London, it is normal for your offer to be contingent on a certain result (A 2:1, typically the equivalent of a 3.5 GPA). As offers are contingent on it, you wont pass your background check until you can provide proof you achieved a 2:1, albeit other users experience may differ.
The analysts at my bank were asked to send over an official transcript after graduation but prior to starting work.
ok that makes sense.
I had to show my diploma once to HR...but it definitely is not the norm.
was that a banking position?
It was in S&T.
