The Worklife Bowl

Compliance Officer

Hello, does anyone have experience with the background check process at Amex? I’m feeling anxious and wondering how long it usually takes. My previous title was Credit Risk Analyst Officer, but on my CV and HireRight I shortened it to Credit Risk Officer because the original title was quite long. I’m worried this may be seen as a discrepancy and affect my offer. I completed the HireRight forms on Monday and have already been asked to resign. Any similar experiences or advice?
