I am going through the hiring process with a company and am awaiting the “Background Cleared” email. I revived a notification on Saturday from Sterling that my background was complete but have not heard anything additional from the company. Would you send a follow up today inquiring on the status or should I wait? Sometimes I hate the hiring process waits lol.

It’s only Monday. I would wait a few days. Someone from HR has to take the time to review it and then relay it to someone else that is most likely the person that will call you to discuss next steps. Try to be patient, I know it’s hard!

I would wait. Usually once it is completed it takes a few days for the HR department or whomever to review it.

Give it a few more days. If you haven’t heard later in the week, then I’d follow up

Agree with giving a few more days. The waiting sucks, but it's a standard part of the process. I'm sure they'll be in touch soon enough - just sit tight.
