    How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

      I have dealt with two clients within financial services this year and both times they used First Advantage Europe to do the vetting. I only went through the process once, but am hoping that if another client uses the same company they wont phone all my contacts again, but keep it in their database for future reference

        They won't.

        The vetting agency for my current Banking gig. as well as the Bank themselves say that even if you do a gig for them and come back in the same year you still have to go through the full procedure. That is standard policy at most banks.

          My current clientco used First Advantage Europe to do my vetting dated to the past 5 years. Took them 3 months to complete this, including repeated requests for the same information to be provided over and over again. I was tempted to start billing them for the time I was having to waste in doing this...
