We're not talking like government security clearance here. If you have some major legal or financial issue in your life then maybe it depends what exactly the BGC turns up or how it's adjudicated. If not, there's basically zero chance it's going to affect anything. Just a formality from the candidate's perspective.



If it's just a formality, why not do it before you start the job then?


If it’s just a formality, why would you delay the new hire’s start by several weeks while it’s pending?


As an employer you wouldn't - but I don't understand how any employee agrees to starting before it's complete.


You already know whether you have a criminal record or financial catastrophe. If you do, maybe you need to wait and see what they think of it. If you don’t, there is no chance of a problem.
