A much more comprehensive background check, so never ever put anything on your cv that you don’t have proof for.

yeah - I was background checked and drug tested [things you’d never see in an agency world]. otherwise the process was pretty straight forward - recruiter phone screen, phone interview w hiring manager, in person with 4 people, offer. 1 month from first contact to offer.

similar experience to agencies.

Drug tested? How archaic.

It’s gonna vary by company. My hiring process was no different than agency: interview, reference check, offer, start.

Same experience as people here. Extensive background check. They call every single reference. Need to pass a drug test.

Still felling it out. Was recruited by my old client and 2 ex coworkers. Had really simple interviews more conversations and was told an offer was coming. Not sure the actual Onboarding process if I accept hope to find out this week

What type of client are you going for? Tech?
