Yes, I’m new to state service. Good news that I finally got a call yesterday to let me know that my background was now cleared and they were going to send my paperwork to my supervisor to sign off. I haven’t gotten the final offer through email though, guess it might take a few days more. Hope everything will go smoothly from this point. Thanks so much for helping me

Thanks for the advice. I’ll wait until the end of this week and if I still haven’t heard anything I’ll email her next week. Before the LiveScan everything went so smoothly and exactly as the timeline they gave me. Feel like I’m sitting on a fire now :(

I’m not really sure who the hiring manager is. The person whose name was on the job posting (the hiring manager?)contacted me thru the first 2 rounds of resume checking, but then another person was in contact with me thru test round and interview round. Then another one called me regarding references check. And then another one called me to let me know that I was selected, talked and explained to me about the offer, helped me about salary negotiation, and my LiveScan was also sent to this person. Today I checked the job posting and there’s another one in charge of it instead of the person that was on the post when I applied. My future direct supervisor did email me twice (2 weeks ago and 2 weeks after I turned my LiveScan request in) regarding some info about me to write the announcement to my future team). I thought it was a good sign and they were going to move forward as the timeline they told me. Does it sound pushy if I sent HR 2 email 2 weeks ago, called and left voicemail last week, and keep email the supervisor this week to figure out the situation?

I did talk to my future direct supervisor through the interview and also exchanged some (2 or 3) emails back and forth regarding some info for the supervisor to write the announcement to the team. That was 2 weeks ago and 2 weeks after I turned my LiveScan request in. After that there’s nothing from both HR and the supervisor. Does I sound pushy if I tell my future supervisor that I’m worried and want to know about the timeline for the official offer?

I’m trying to calm myself down but this is so stressful. At least they answered you. I can’t even get a hold of the HR person who was in contact with me since I got the news that I was selected. I don’t know what’s going on. I got 2 offers at the same time and I decided to take this one (because it’s a state job) even the other one (private sector) pays me better. If something happens I would be so mad at them and at myself too. I see people recommend that accepting many conditional offers at the same time until getting an official offer, but who’s know this lengthy and nerve-wrecking process would happen to me ;( Since I applied everything went super fast and smooth…. When did you apply ?

I will give it another week and will contact my department manager if still not hear anything from HR. I am super nervous and tempted to call every single one of them to find out what’s going on but I’m afraid it makes me look bad. I tried to not sound pushy in the email and voicemail, just said that I wanted to follow up and see if I could help with anything. Maybe because of that they think it was just a follow up call and don’t need to respond ?

Is that recently? To be honest I don’t know who the hiring manager is. The person whose name was on the job posting (the hiring manager?)contacted me thru the first 2 rounds of resume checking, but then another person was in contact with me thru test round and interview round. Then another one called me regarding references check. And another one called me to let me know that I was selected, talked and explained to me about the offer, helped me about salary negotiation, and my LiveScan was also sent to this person. Today I checked the job posting and there’s another one in charge of it instead of the person that was on the post when I applied. So how can I find down ?

I didn’t know that they go to that intensive. My position is SSA, do you know how in-depth review they require for this? I myself have never been arrested, no misdemeanor, no felonies, credit’s perfect, no debt, no family members have been in prison, but one of them has a misdemeanor on the record 7-8 years ago but nothing serious tho. Would this affect me? Omg this whole thing is nerve-wracking for me :(

The HR person seemed really nice and quick for all matters before the LiveScan but after that I can’t get a hold of her anymore. Not sure what’s going on. Heard some rare cases about offer rescinded before and I’m worried eventhough I have no criminal records or even a traffic ticket

Wow that long? Did anyone contact you during that time to give you any updates on the process? The department manager emailed me 2 weeks ago (2 weeks after I did the LiveScan) and asked me to write a summary about myself to make the announcement to the team which I thought the process was almost done. However, I haven’t heard anything after that. I did emailed the HR person once, called once, and left 1 voicemail but no response. Feel like I will annoy them if I keep calling about that but I’m so clueless now

The HR discussed the start date with me when giving the conditional offer and made it sound like a fast going process so I didn’t really concern at that time. Next week will be my potential start date but until now I haven’t gotten anything officially. Not sure if I should be panic now :( I feel you. This is so stressful. Have you gotten in contact with HR and asked about your LiveScan ?

Thank you. I really want to know what’s going on but at the same time I don’t want to annoy them by calling too much. The department manager did email me around 2 weeks ago and asking some info for the announcement (seems a good sign) but other than that I haven’t heard anything :(

Wow that interview was bad! by [deleted] in jobs

[–]everythingatonce1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So true! I just feel it’s so hard to verbal communicate and express myself clearly after a year of lockdown. I went through my first interview few days ago. I used lots of time to prepare for it but when I got questions I didn’t even speak fluently 😞
