A background-check delay can make a job seeker worry that an offer is disappearing. First, respond promptly to every legitimate request from the employer or screening company. Check that your information is accurate and watch for messages asking you to complete required steps. If the process takes longer than expected, send the employer a short professional follow-up. Do not pay an unknown person to “speed up” a background check. Keep applying to other jobs until your start date is confirmed. A pending offer is not the same as guaranteed employment.
