Offer no reference check


I don’t know if the is the correct thread to post my question, but if it is not, I am sorry in advance.

 I got a job offer already and I will be starting next week on the new job.  However, the new employer did not ask for my references or have me fill out an employment application yet.  Therefore, I know they have no way to check my references or back group.  I know that most of companies do thorough back ground check or reference check before they hire someone.  I just wonder if I should be worried about anything.  Not that I have any thing to hide or bad back-group.

Probably not.  Lots of employer don't check anything.  On the other hand, lots check everything before making a job offer.  Believe it or not, there are still many employers who take the "just show me an honest face" approach to screening candidates for employment.  And I suppose it's possible that they could check your background and/or references after you've started - it's a stupid way to do it, but that's how some employers handle it.  Zat help?
