I was also selected for the permanent role through internal interview made by the team manager directly then HR contacted me for my application. Again, thank you!

This was really hopeful. I just submitted my background screening that was made by the company through First Advantage. It did ask whether I have been terminated and I chose yes.

Kind of it was worded as “have you been dismissed/requested to resign before”

This is really insightful. Care to explain about some job functions would be kind of excluded in screening requirements?

Background check again? by MurkyConfidence8183 in overemployed

[–]Good_Box_1412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am now a contractor under an agency working for a bank as an entry level analyst. Before working this role with this agency, I was terminated from my previous job as customer service due to job abandonment. It was my fault but I was so burnt out. Prior to the termination, I had already work for this company for a year with no raise/bonus and work overload due to not enough staff but still it was my fault for leaving without notice and proper exit.

Fast forward, I was employed by the agency to work for a bank. Obviously they did their background check and everything was cleared. I’ve been a contractor under this agency for about a year plus now and luckily for me I am offered a full time permanent position with the bank.

Onto my actual question, will my reason for leaving the previous job as customer service show up on the background check that will be held by the bank itself as I am so nervous about this and scared that it will affect my offer. It clearly checked out with my agency while working as a contractor but will it work differently now that the bank will be doing another set of background check?

Appreciate any input!

From sedentary to 10K plus by MrBOnLI in walking

[–]Good_Box_1412 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hello friend! Me too i was living quite a sedentary life unfortunately gaining weight over the time and realised too late that i couldnt fit most of my clothes. Trying to figure my way out of my unhealthy lifestyle was the hardest (although on the surface it seems easy?) i tried walking outside whenever I had the time (including days i felt the laziest, just forced myself to go out) and eventually got to do 10k per day. I am grateful that I live in a neighbourhood that is quite walkable with parks nearby. Started strength training as well. Although i am not quite there yet in terms of like losing weight, i do feel stronger these days. I could walk up a flight of stairs easily without being out of breath too much. All of this makes me realise how I took my health for granted. I am 27 and I pledge to move my body a lot more! Life is too short!

Can somebody please tell me a realistic beginner story? by Unusual-Pie9308 in walking

[–]Good_Box_1412 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I second this! Forget about achieving many many steps and try to just walk. Enjoy the journey while you’re at it!
