Background check before offer?
Hi guys,
Does HR usually conduct background check before an offer? Three weeks after I attended the final round interview for a particular bank, the HR called me and asked me scan my IC to them. I just agreed and forgot to ask why and what they needed it for in that moment. Can anyone working in HR make a good guess as to why the HR asked me to scan my IC? I suppose it should be for a background check so I thought perhaps they will be making an offer to me soon. But it has been almost two weeks since that phone call and I still have not heard back from HR. I'm really anxious waiting for a reply from them. :( |

hey thanks for your reply. I'm just not sure what's going on cause I thought usually its offer first then background check. And I already gave them my IC during the interview hence not sure why they're asking me to scan it to them

I see, thanks so much. Is it safe to presume that they will most likely give me an offer since I don't think they will run a check on someone they're not intending to hire? Sry I'm just super anxious to get a job before graduation

Anyway, I was trying to understand some information regarding the entire hiring timeline for banks in SG. Can any seniors in the industry shed some light based on their experiences? For instance, how long should be the rough wait for 1st & 2nd interview until being called up for an offer? |

Can I say that its normal to wait about a month for an offer? (Considering that necessary procedures have to be done i.e. background checks, approvals etc.) |
i waited about 1.5weeks for my HR(who outsourced to a third party provider) to do my background check back then...
i work in a boutique private bank here in SG... |
