I recently signed an offer letter for a new role and submitted my background check paperwork to HireRight about three weeks ago. Tonight, I received a notification that my paperwork was filled out incorrectly and needs to be resubmitted. I informed them that I’m supposed to start on Monday and requested an expedited process since it’s been several weeks already. However, they told me that my background check won’t be completed before my start date unless the company takes action to expedite it. I've reached out to the company to let them know about the situation, but I'm anxious about what happens if my background check is still pending when Monday arrives. I've heard from others that some companies might still allow you to start, but with the understanding that they can terminate your employment if the background check doesn't come back clean. I’m hoping to get some insights from HR professionals or anyone who has faced a similar situation.
