Background Check extremely frustrating

I've never seen such a thing in my entire life! I was given the job offer a couple days after my interview, I put two weeks notice in at my current full time job. I start getting 4-10 phone calls a day from A-Check (this has been going on for 4 business days). I've called and responded to all their request, but they're starting to worry me. I'm a straight edge person, but this lady is unrealistic. I've been at my current job for over a few years now, so when I filled out my work experience I guessed on my eta of employment. What a mistake.. She is calling me about a month difference from what I said to what my previous employers said! She has had me fax in my diploma because she can't find my high school. She's called my current employer 6 times and when my boss attempts to call her back, he just gets her voice mail. He's getting fed up with her calling him so much and honestly I can't blame him. I've put my two weeks notice in since I got my job offer, but now I'm concerned with all of this, espc with the way this lady is conducting herself. Can anyone assure me that this is normal? I mean, if I'm wrong on dates of employment, am I not going to get a job now?

how did it go? i'm experiencing the same thing.

I got the job and everything went fine, but honestly, I wouldn't trust A-Check with anything, they seem to be very sketchy and very inconsistent. I got a call about two weeks after I got hired saying "You're background check is now complete and we'll see you for training". .

Jack - seeing if you could help me as your post is among the most recents concerning employment with VZW amidst the crazy iPhone launch. I am about to pull my hair out! I have completed the interview process, been offered a position (contingent) & am now seeing the 15th (including non-business) day since A-Check received my faxed authorization to begin my background check. I am 99% positive that nothing is going to reveal itself that would not be in favor to myself as a candidate, but I am really wondering why I have not heard from Verizon HR confirming my start date! I was originally told that my first day would be this coming Monday, Feb. 21st. I am supposedly attending training in Greenville, SC & I need to make other plans if this is not the case. I contacted both A-Check & HR last Thursday/Friday to see if any additional information was needed & they said it looked like everything was good to go, just waiting on my criminal history & drug screen. Then A-Check called & asked me to fax in a prescription copy for a medication that came back positive on my drug screen, so I did that immediately. All should be good, right?!?! the HR rep told me that I should be hearing from them either way by the middle of this week. So... what does that REALLY mean? Do you have any input/recommendations as to what I might do (besides RELAX!!)? ;) I am so ready to go to work & w/ an awesome company like this one. Thank you in advance. I appreciate any feedback you have to offer! Congratulations on the job!

I submitted my application. I forgot to add two jobs that I previously held and I just noticed it says ALL jobs for the past 7 years. Is there a way to add this to my application even though it has been submitted? I have a telephone interview scheduled on Monday. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks

Hi you can make changes to your application any time before the offer is made. Once a offer is made then you can't change anything. I suggest you be truthful through out this process or your offer can be recsinded....Hope this helps!

I have a questions are they asking about why you no longer with the previous company or is they just verifying dates.
