They asked for documentation / alternate contact for a job that I had in high school. I was unable to give them any documentation but I did give them an alternate form of communication with my high school employer. The fact that the hold up is due to a job I had in high school seems a bit ridiculous to me... Anyways, I gave them this alternate information over a week ago and there still seems to be no progress being made on hireright's end.

What I'm really wondering is if the background check doesn't seem like its going to be completed by my class date is that going to be a problem? Does jetBlue let you start if the background check isn't complete on hirerights end? I don't really want to put my two weeks in at my current employer until the background check is done in fear that my class date will get pushed back due to the background check.

Thanks
