BCG SEA - When to resign from your current job

Hi all,

I just got an offer with BCG and currently in the process of background check. I have consistent employment history and good professional references. 

Should I wait for the background check to be over before resigning or i can confidently resign now? Thanks!

Congratulations on the offer!

Short answer, feel free to resign unless you’re concerned about something in your history eg criminal records etc. it’s mostly a formality.

You can probably resign now, although the safest bet would be to wait until the background check comes back, just to be 100% sure there's no mistake/anomaly.

Congratulations on your offer!
