35 days for a criminal check only and still pending
|
It has now been 35 days since my (hopefully) future employer has sent in a request for a criminal check. I have NOTHING on my record and still am in pending status. Due to this, they are ending their contract with them at the end of the year. My background request was submitted on 9/17 and I was to start the job on 10/1. It is now 10/22 and there is still no result. This has cost me nearly 4000.00 dollars that I desperately need. It is out of my hands and the most frustrating thing ever. The new store opens in 6 days and I am to be the general manager.... My area director assures me that my job is safe, but I am horribly worried that I may lose it and that would severely hurt me financially and, not to mention, emotionally. They are not verifying employment history, wage history, or education history. This is only a basic check for misdemeanors, felonies, and citizenship status. I have undergone a few background checks over the years and the average time of completion is ALWAYS less than a week. They are jeopardizing people's lives here! I am severely disappointed with this company. My area director has called several times and they keep telling him 3 business days to completion... I'm at a loss and do not know what to do. I asked if a private party check would be acceptable and they are looking into whether or not it would. Shame on you Hireright!
