After accepting an offer, the new Company will do a background check (3-5 days). I don’t expect any issue.
When should I give notice - before or after background check is completed? I am little nervous giving notice before the background check is done, in case something goes wrong.

Right now, I wanted to make a switch to Aviation, Aerospace or Defense company. I’m in Texas, specifically Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. I would really appreciated if someone can help point me to that direction.

One of my senior managers is a boomerang and told me she was laid off when she was 7 months pregnant about 10 years ago. I think she was a senior or manager. She was in a specific group and everybody was laid off. It wasn’t performance based.
