Issues with sleep
Im starting to get really concerned. It’s been 9 business days since my background check report got submitted to Microsoft. Yesterday it got adjudicated to meet company standards by Microsoft but I still have a yellow flag pending security review on gap standard. I emailed AskHR and no response over 12 hours later. I’ve not got an email with start dates. Should I be concerned? No failed background checks or past criminal history. New TC $330 (if it ever happens) My team is toxic and I’m desperate to move on so want to give notice but am sole breadwinner for family so can’t resign without confirmation.
It can be slow, doesn’t sound at all like it’s going to be an issue. Remember this week a ton of people are taking off/traveling for various holidays or school breaks. Microsoft HR is generally very slow and a holiday will make it worse. You’ll get the start date email 24-48 hrs after clearing the check usually. If you don’t hear anything tomorrow there’s an “escalate” link in the email signature from the HR person.
Msft works like snail, it take lot if time for bcg to complete
My friend just got an offer from Microsoft and they told him that because there is a high volume of people changing jobs right now the background check process is taking 2-3 weeks so he should plan for that.
Ok thankfully I’m still not at 15 days
Thank you all are giving me hope
How quickly did they get back to you with a verbal agreement after the interview?
20 days for me.
Generally takes two weeks for whatever reason. Don't worry and congrats.
If you're in the US, 12 hours is silly. It's the morning, nobody gonna respond overnight.
Mailed them at 1pm PDT yesterday
That means they've had 4 hours to respond. Via email there isn't much expectation of a turnaround that fast. Maybe maybe by COB today but even then, meh.
