I gave my recruiter exactly a week before I reached out. I have heard sometimes it takes a while but don't worry - it will all get worked out!
When did you last talk to your recruiter?

I gave my recruiter exactly a week before I reached out. I have heard sometimes it takes a while but don't worry - it will all get worked out!
When did you last talk to your recruiter?
I have heard a few business days - what training are you going to be in? My recruiter said I should be expecting an email in two weeks to set up my paperwork session
I had my interview two weeks ago and filed my BGC that Friday. I emailed a week after I filed it just to touch base and she replied that it was still in progress. And she would reach out to me with an update. My HireRight account shows that it's still in progress as well but when I called them they said it was completed 5 days after I filed it. So I'm kind of in a weird situation with this.
I would give it until Friday and just follow up with your recruiter - I know the process can get you worried but just be patience with it. I know the feeling; I was beyond elated to get the call yesterday confirming I was moving forward after the BGC.

Very cool congrats! Phone support I assume? I am in the Chat training on 6/30 but I would love to get my paperwork before then obviously!
How long did it take you from the day you files you BGC to the recruiter calling you to offer you the position?
Here is my time line:
Feb 26th : Applied for Chat positing
Mar 18th: Cold call, saying they wanted to move me forward with the HireVu interview
Mar 26th: Second interview
April 2nd: Third and final interview
April 11th: Told I am moving forward with the BGC and the job is mine if I meet the requirements
April 15th: Link is emailed to me for BGC check/submitted BGC check
April 22nd: Called again and the job is officially offered to me. Expecting to receive an email in two weeks to set up paper work session
Hmm. Well congrats. hopefully I hear something soon. Friday will be two weeks since my BGC was filed.

Question to everyone. A person from Apple with a 510 number called me to offer me the job. I had another job lined up due to how low it took to hear back from them so I told him I'd call him back. I called him back days later to accept the position and he said someone will be calling me on Monday with details because he was going on vacation this week.
It's Wednesday and no one has contacted me, and I can't get in touch with the guy. Anyone know who I can contact?
Filled mine out on March 27th and heard back from them last week.
The live chat position thing is apart of the At Home Advisor job? I thought everything was phone based because of the landline.

I'm in that class - and I have no idea if it's iOS or Mac.

1. I have heard it's the 21 inch, but I have also heard reports of it being the 27.
2. No, it is for business use only.
3. I assume it's a brand new iMac.
Seeing all of these posts about people getting into the chat position really has me discouraged 
Definitely happy for you guys, but really disappointed for myself. I'm guessing it's safe to assume I won't be contacted. Does anyone know how long I should wait before applying again??

Does anyone know how long I should wait before applying again??I personally think you should keep applying until you hear back... Maybe have someone look over your resume or cover letter and make a few changes first? Best of luck!

I first saw on the HireRight website that my BGC was completed this past Saturday, here we are Thursday Afternoon and I still haven't heard anything
...I am gonna give it till tomorrow afternoon before I reach out to my recruiter, I am slightly worried even though I know I probably shouldn't be. This process is excruciatingly slow!
June 30th needs to come quickly!!!
As far as this is concerned, I was told in my 2nd interview that the training is 4 weeks and from I've heard, IOS training is 4 weeks and Mac Training is 5 - plus most of my questions in the 3rd interview were IOS related so I have a feeling that it is going to be an IOS class, especially since we are quickly approaching a new iPhone being released in the Fall
I actually felt pretty good about my resume n cover letter lol. But I will definitely do that and apply again. Thanks!
