Is that relevant?

It is if you’re willing to review my resume and refer me

Such conversions are lowballed usually. Have a competitive offer to negotiate better.

Timeline depends on your visa status. Background check takes 2-3 weeks

OP, did the contractor company had a non compete clause that wouldn't allow you to work as FTE for the client for a period of time? If so, how was that handled? Thx!

You just don't tell the contracting company you got converted to an FTE. Also make sure all your bills are settled with your contracting company before notifying them
