PS5 player here and I can't seem to get a full lobby when trying to play regular Battle Royale Quads - Note, I have crossplay off and have never had issues finding full lobbies until this past weekend. I haven't been able to find a regular lobby for DAYS!!!!!

I recently completed a background check through Sterling/First Advantage for a supervisor-level role at a large professional services firm in the finance/accounting/consulting space.

I received the completed report and the Order Result says “CONSIDER.”

The weird part is that basically everything cleared — criminal background, education, employment/global screening, etc. The only section that didn’t clear was the resume comparison.

There were three discrepancies flagged:

• The address at the top of my resume didn’t match my current/address history (easy to explain).
• One job title was listed as Manager on my resume, while the verification came back as Research Associate. “Manager” was the title I actually used/was given internally at the company, so I can explain that one.
• The bigger concern: some of my employment dates were pretty far off between what was on my resume and what came back through the verification. I’m not talking about being off by a month or two — there are definitely discrepancies that could stand out.

I haven’t heard anything from the employer yet. I just received the completed background check report showing “CONSIDER.”

For anyone who has dealt with Sterling/First Advantage or works in recruiting/HR: What usually happens from here? Does “CONSIDER” simply mean the employer has to manually review the discrepancies, or is this the kind of thing that can realistically get an offer pulled?

Especially curious if anyone has experience with background checks at large professional services/consulting/accounting firms.

Trying to figure out whether I should expect a simple request for clarification/documentation or prepare for this to become a bigger issue.
