On Saturday I received an offer out of the blue to become a Senior Domain Expert, this is my first contract with mercor but I have done work on other sites before. I got asked to complete a security check and was told it would take 2-3 business days, we are now past that time frame and I am now being told that I could receive my police check (the name of this check in my country) before or after the 28th of May.

I just find this really frustrating because I have to wait until this comes through to be able to work, I also have a valid police check due to previous work but both Mercor and zinc won’t accept that despite it also coming from the AFP. Is this something I should expect for all contracts?
