Hey, as many of you have probably seen from my other thread titled "Finally....have an interview after 5 months", the hiring manager at CVS offered me a position on Thursday. However, this was a verbal offer and she asked me to submit an official application for the position online at cvs.com and explained that I should be expecting an official offer letter and other forms of communication in the coming days. I should expect a background check to be run as well as a urine drug screen. I asked her on Friday at what store I would be working at since I will not be a floater and she was thinking of placing me in the store where I had my interview. She said she will be in touch. The problem is it's been 5 days and I haven't heard anything yet. She asked me if I will be available for the holidays and I said yes because I am not planning on doing any travel. Why haven't I heard back and/or what is taking so long? She did say the company was updating the application process online, but I'm not sure if that's it. I'm pretty impatient and just want to start working already. Apparently, I will be having Christmas eve and day off because I haven't had any type of communication with anyone and the holidays are less than a week away. I doubt she will call me to start training on Christmas eve/day. I realize the significance of an official offer letter, but I have nothing yet except her word. Further, I could call her and find out what the time frame is, but I'd rather not for fear of becoming a pest. Thoughts? Should I have reason for concern or am I just paranoid?
