I received a CJO second week of January. Received email from background company the following day, all documents uploaded same day. I called Cisive to check on the status and was told I was “pending” and that they required nothing from me. They mentioned waiting on PRIA.
Does anyone have an experience/timeline of how long that might take? And when the background check clears, and class date is offered, how many days out is that start day typically?
Thanks!

1/22: Offered a class date in mid Feb
PRIA is the piece that seems to be somewhat variable. I called Cisive once a week just to ask if they needed anything else. It may not have helped, but the simple call gave me the illusion of taking a more active role in things. Based on your timeline I’d imagining you’ll hear something soon. Good luck.

i haven’t seen my HS diploma in 20 years. They did ask for college transcripts… It was collected along with all the other documents, so I’d imagine they looked at it. Never came up.

Has anyone ever had their references or “recommenders” been contacted by the hiring team? Any current or previous employers being contacted? I’ve written recs and been a reference on perhaps dozens of apps. I have never taken a phone call or an email about ANY of them - no matter if they were hired, PARB’d, rejected, fix-it emailed or totally ignored.
I’ve known some great people who were rejected and parb’d. If that’s happening based on a 45 minute interview without any attempt to add color to the process by including references who have known these candidates for years or decades…we’ve got a problem. And if recs and references aren’t being used - why not just pull them off the app?
