    It took me 3.5 weeks for my background to be processed by Amazon, after my hiring manager escalating with the bg team.

      Thank you! That was very helpful, it’s my first FAANG role and I don’t want to rub people off the wrong way - each time I’m pushing for something I feel it’ll impact me further down the line...which I know is a bad way of thinking about this

      Only rub people off after you get consent.

      Seriously though, the hiring manager can take most of these issues in a good way or a bad way, and there’s nothing you can do about it. Since you don’t know them you can’t gauge how they will take it.

      For instance. Following up on the background status:
      Bad - This person is impatient and needs constant reassurance
      Good - This person is excited to join the team, and wants to make sure his previous employer receives a 2 week notice. This person is on top of managing tasks.

      If they take it negatively it speaks more about them than you. Don’t sweat it.

    That’s a pretty mature take to it. Thank you again.
