Oh wow, super relevant question for me. Working with them right now to get my background check done. They quoted me 2-8 days after I finished last weekend but just chatted with customer service today and now they’re saying an additional 5 business days?? Puts me in an awkward position cause I’ve already discussed a starting date with new company but I want peace of mind from the background check before submitting my 2 weeks

EY1, when I interviewed, they never asked my current salary. I did not negotiate my salary either. I gave my expectation and ended up getting more than I asked. Also, when you provided w2 for verification, you could redact sensitive information like wages and ssn. Hope this helps.

Congrats! HireRight was a bit pain to deal with. If you have previous jobs, please make sure to provide actual working numbers. Otherwise, it will take additional days to complete. Also, be prepared to provide W2 or pay stubs. Assuming no criminal history, it should take a week or less. Once again, congratulations. I am leaving too.
