Is anybody on the 10/8 training class and have you made it to the hire right proccess and if so have you heard anything beyond the hire right proccess

I had my 3rd interview with hiring manager on Monday. Within an hour I received the link to HireRight to fill out an application and permission for the background check.

I have had background checks 3 times. They can take up to 10-14 days.

So be patient.

Hope you are successful.

If I am offered a position, I think I would be part of the 10/8 training.
 
Yea it within an hr or so but I haven't heard anything yet and it's been over a week... Starting to wonder what's going on I know my background is clean

----------

@mkmurry was that this past Monday or last Monday and just curious why they checked your background 3 times (or were those different positions) and did u hear anything back after submitting to hire right
 
Ive got background in this field over 15 years for all the major manufacturers. So I got a phone call from Dell wanting to interview me for a technical position this morning. My 3rd interview is on the 24th with a start date of 10/29. What do I do? :confused::confused:

What exactly are you needing an opinion on? I'd say blow Dell off. In the call center I work in now, I've met several people who left Dell support to come work for Apple here because Dell is horrible. Everyone tells me their tech support is horrid and the job is horrid. I wouldn't risk losing an opportunity with Apple for Dell.

You keep on trying to get every job you can until you're actually starting somewhere. If you really need a job it's pure idiocy to blow off any potential employer.

Yea mine is still pending as well... how long ago did u send your hire right info... im for 10/8 as well
sent mine last Monday the 3rd
 
Just finished the third interview and it was one fo the weirdest I've ever had, this whole process was odd.

The interviewer white wife beater tee shirt wasn't very engaged, seemed to be in a hurry only took 15 minutes. Maybe he had a date or something.

Easy questions seemed like they had already made a decision based on my resume.

He did say his team works alot of overtime, which I was thinking yuck.

Yea, but what I am saying is HireRight messed it up, and I couldn't get ahold of anyone anywhere to fix the mistake. I haven't lived in the places they said I lived in.
Click to expand...

I apologize for the digression but I too had an address noted on the HireRight report whereas I have no incline where it is. I never lived in New York but the record check came out clean. In any event, it is still eerie. Guess someone tried to steal my identity at some point in time. :( When they realized that I've sold my soul to the Feds due to the enormous student loan debt incurred, they moved on to the next poor soul. LOL
