Hiring Process- ramp agent

I was given a CGO on January 10 after a panel interview. I did my drug test and fingerprints on the 20th but never received a confirmation that was received or completed, should I be worried? I have been having trouble contacting my recruiter to get an update and I saw that others received a confirmation after a week of it being completed.

I'm in the same boat as you, got my CJO on the 10th. Then, had my drug test and fingerprints done on, I believe, the 20th. I checked my dashboard, and my status is under review, last updated January 31st.

I know it took me awhile back in August before I heard back, maybe 2-3 weeks. Right now I know we are on a hiring frenzy and have been since I was hired on in August. I would email your recruiter if you don't hear anything in the 2-3 weeks. Did you get a USPS background check emailed to you also?

I have not received anything from USPS yet. Just the emails about fingerprints at a ups store and the drug test in the same day. Finished them on the 20th.  Haven't heard or gotten anything since then. I did see others say it was a long process but I guess I'm getting a bit nervous. I've emailed my recruiter twice. Don't want to bother too much.

Have you received anything from USPS or did you receive a confirmation that your drug test and fingerprints were completed?

Nothing from USPS, nor any confirmation about my drug test and prints.

I have the exact dates for my offer and when I did my fingerprints and drug test.  Are you going to DCA airport by chance?
