  1. 2

    I was laid off in March and have been searching for a new job since then. Recently, I reached the final stage of the hiring process with a company and received an offer. However, I'm now anxious about the background check. On my resume, I indicated that I am still employed at my previous company, but when I filled out the background check form, I provided the correct start and end dates. I'm worried that this discrepancy might be a deal breaker. I wonder what HR will focus on in the report from the third-party company. I’ve heard that even a small inconsistency could raise red flags, especially since it’s been about 6-7 months since my layoff.

    I wanted to share an opportunity for anyone looking for a job. My partner and I were both laid off late last year, but he recently secured a position at a startup that is currently hiring. They are open to referring candidates for their open roles. The company prefers hybrid work based in NYC, but they are flexible with remote work for strong candidates. If you're interested, please DM me your resume, and I can provide you with the link to their careers page.
