Just got an offer and was filing out the EY background check. For ‘supervisor info’ do you give the HR contact info or the Manager/Director who you worked with?

They don’t reach out to anyone, it’s just to verify employment. Which is covered in the back ground check. Honestly the reference is more of a formality. I put that email of a senior I worked with and no one reached out to them

I just put the general HR line. If they want a specific person they can ask for it 🤷🏻‍♂️

I gave my director but I don’t think it matters if it’s HR or manager. They only want it to verify your employment

Congrats! I put my PML, which is similar to a supervisor but not a direct manager/director

Good to know! Thanks y’all! I appreciate it! 🤗

Hi Fishies!

I have got a call for cloud engineer position in PWC.
But i havent heard back from anyone for scheduling any interview.
The HR had called me and asked me about my experience in cloud/DevOps, Current CTC, expectations, offered salary.
But after that I havent got any call for interview.

Does the process of scheduling an interview takes time here?
