I have a question... I have a verbal offer of JPM and now they will start there background checks. At a previous role, I was not confirmed into the role whilst on probation and it was a mutual decision for me to leave as the role was not the one I wanted to do or believed I would be doing. I have been open with the team whilst interviewing so this is not new info. Will the background check flag this as a dismissal. It was not a dismissal as such I didn't pass the probation. what do checks ask?

If there is a form to fill out for the background check ( where you list every past role, education etc.), be very clear on why you left, err on the side of being pushed instead of jumped. If you say mutual and they say they let you go, could cause an adverse action against you.
