Hypocrisy of Indians
When I applied to Meta, I did not disclose that I was no longer at my last company (I was laid off 3-4 months before I got the recruiter call). Team match was an eternity and they just did my background check. I filled the background check out accurately and it will end up showing I was laid off mid last year. Will my offer be rescinded?
doubt it. If you got an offer after all that theres no way the Hm backs out unless you come back as a completely different person. They know layoffs are happening everywhere, they practically started the trend. and congrats, what are u gonna do with all that ca$h
that’s good to hear. Wanted to see if there were any similar cases out there And still figuring that out, it’s nice to just have cash coming in the door again lol
The background check will not show that you were laid off. It will have the reason as blank. But you could disclose if you are laid off if you want. You can disclose your end date as the end of the period where you were on payroll. So if there was a WARN period you can out the date after it ended.
there’s a required field call reason for separation, so I had to put redundancy
Yes I know I had my background check completed with meta and viewed the report and it shows that they didn’t get any information for the separation. I’m saying you could have put voluntary resignation and there would be no way for them to verify it because your previous employer won’t disclose the reason for legal coverage.
OP, may I ask how long is it taking in team match stage? And how many teams did you get to talk to?
In my case , i talked to 7 teams with in 3-4 days.
team match is a process shrouded in mystery. I guess it varies depending on your experience and yoe. I talked to 3-4 teams total.
You should be fine
