I haven’t been asked this yet in the interview process (I’m 2 rounds in for reference) but am assuming it’ll come up during the offer stage (someone pls feel free to correct me if that’s not the standard, I’m just assuming)!

I ideally would want to start 3 weeks after the background check officially clears (2 weeks to give notice to my current employer + 1 week for a transition period between jobs).

Is it acceptable to say something like, “I’d want to give my current team notice, which is typically 2-3 weeks.”? Idk if it’s necessarily “professional” to bring up the background check thing in my answer. I’ve just heard from friends to be never tell your current employer you’re leaving until your background check officially clears.

Thanks so much in advance for any advice everyone!! This is my second job so all jobs beforehand just gave me the start date automatically (internships, cohort training program with same start date, etc.)

Basically what the title says lol

for context, this is my dream job / #1 at the moment. they also didn't answer an email i sent a few days beforehand when i had a question regarding timing, so i'm not sure if their inbox is just flooded.

trying to find a good balance of trusting the process and also not wanting my submission to fall through the cracks in case she didn't see it.

we haven't had any live convos yet either (for context). thanks in advance!

Would today (Tuesday) or Wednesday be better? I don't want to be pushy since this is my dream job, but they also didn't acknowledge my submission (or the email I sent before that when I had a question).
