KPMG doesn’t do background checks. Come on, they are literally the firm who invented the annual fraud scandal.

The offer is concrete other than the background check (I.e. I have signed all of the prehire paperwork and have a start date). I need to move geographically, which is where the issue stems.

You don’t have to give notice until the offer is concrete. Most new employers get that.

Um, I’m not disclosing the office.

OP, personally, I’d inform them that I would prefer to give notice once all steps are completed

I spoke to the experience hire manager today and asked how long the prehire process typically takes. He said about a month, which is kind of nerve wracking, but I may just need to quit beforehand. I don’t expect anything to hold it up since I went through this process with both the CPA and Deloitte not too long ago.

Never quit unless you have a job.

I technically do have the job

It takes about 2 weeks or so. What office?

Just wait. I went from Deloitte to BDO. I put in my two weeks and they told me bc I was going to a competitor that they would pay me my 2weeks but that was my last day. They also paid me my accrued Pto. Just chill and enjoy the extra cash when it comes time to it

Hi All, just sharing what on mind to vent it out from my system. Maybe with this I could gain some insights and inspiration.
I have been working as a data scientist since 2018 & have been the bread winner. I have neither been under a proper mentor nor with a team of peers from my field to help me out. I was alone and confused. I have never really got the chance to prove myself which makes me all the more depressed. I'm not sure what to do with my future, indecisive and low on confidence.
