I have an offer for sde2 from Amazon and I'm looking to join in the first week of October.

Accurate is doing my background check and they have so have far been unclear on what documents are required. I waited for about a week asking clarification and receiving none.

Today, I call them up and they tell me to obtain a document which takes around 10-15 days(from Belgium where I previously resided). I've asked for the document but I'm concerned that the whole process will not finish before my start date.

What should i do? Has anyone here had a similar experience?

TC: 270k.

  • Your background check for FAANG should generally demonstrate your ability to go above and beyond. For me it was my speeding tickets - they showed I’m going to ignore the limits and push the boundaries of status quo. If you don’t have that, expect an offer retraction.

    Accurate is slow as fuck. My whole background check was only finished a week before my starting date (might've been even less). Yeah it sucks.

    Seeing your TC, are you emigrating to US or moving back?

      OP
      Neither, I'm working in the US atm and plan to continue working for Amazon in the bay area(assuming accurate can get the paperwork done on time).

    How long did it end up taking? It’s been really slow for me. Thanks.
