Hi everyone,
I’m joining TW Chennai soon and wanted to understand what I should expect or complete before the joining date. Can anyone help me with the following?
1) When does TW usually start the BGV process?
2) Do new joiners receive any welcome kit or laptop before the joining date, or is everything provided on Day 1?
3) What usually happens on the first day?
Thanks

Actually to add to the previous comment, you will know about background verification process only if anything is not matching or they need some info from you for the verification

like

1) you will not know about the background process. It happens in the background.
2) you get a macbook, joining kit includes water bottle, bag, t shirt etc
3) joining process is simple...you come and get the joining kit, meet a few people, have bfast and lunch...chat around, get calls from HR and then slowly you ll have some thought works related training in coming weeks

Great! Thanks for the insights.
