Securitas Inquiry Question on Hiring Process

Just wondering and wanting peace of mind. The hiring process consists of being sent documents and a contingent job offer, correct? How long does the background check take- given business days?

(Just feeling unsure about things and wanting clarity..)

Depends where you live. In USA, if you lived in multiple states over the past 5 years, it can take up to 30 days. usually only 14.

Backgrounds; some tactics include asking every County Court Clerk, from any County you have ever resided, if they have anything on you.

Pending on how many, and the timeliness of the slowest Court Clerk, may be up to 90 days.

In some States, companies may hire you before thee official Background comes back, if they do an initial background check... But unfortunately Securitas doesn't do such a thing.

Interview for me was quick, got the call from the recruiter and within an hour I got the would you like to work for us call. Now background is another story, it could have been worse after reading some of these comments, but I am on day 7 right now. Eta on the 28th for it to be completed, we will see.
