After passing the interview, it usually means that you will be hired, but if you are notified that a background check is required, it means that whether you can join the job is still uncertain, so job seekers will also be concerned about how long it will take for the pre-employment background investigation report to be issued, which is related to the content of the background check and the position you are applying for.
1. Online back-check report will be issued on the same day
The efficiency of online back investigation is very high, because the investigated content can be queried through public databases or websites, and the preliminary authorization and final report issuance are also conducted online. As long as the authorization is obtained and the basic information of the respondent is obtained, the investigation can be completed quickly and the report can be issued, and the results can be known on the same day.
2. Back-up transfer for ordinary positions takes about three working days.
If you need to investigate the candidate's work resume, you need to combine offline background checks and manually contact the certifier from the original unit by phone, which will take longer. Ordinary positions usually only require an investigation of the candidate's previous work experience, and the results can usually be obtained within three working days and a background report can be submitted. But it will also be affected by other factors. If the authorization is not timely, the time will be extended.
3. Back-up transfer for high-level positions takes about five working days
Recruiting for high-level positions requires a more in-depth background investigation, more content is investigated, and the work resume will be increased to three paragraphs or more, which will take up more time. It usually takes five working days to complete, and if there is a holiday in between, you will need to wait longer.
As for how long the pre-employment background check takes, the above introduces different situations. Because most job seekers are in ordinary positions, they can determine whether they can join the job after three days. If you only need to investigate basic information, you can know the results soon after authorization.
