Wait for background check to be completed before quitting your current job.
Not paranoid. You're going to pass the background check and everything should be fine, but quitting now does you no favors. Wait until the background check clears and you have a start date, then give notice.
I was offered a job and wheels set in motion in September. My background check wasn’t completed until October 28, I turned in my notice on Oct 29.
Clear background checks can still take some time. I just had an issue with mine. The 3rd party they use couldn’t verify past employment, so I had to provide proof for all of that. Took way longer than expected.
