DoorDash is an on-demand food delivery service. The company was originally founded in 2013 by a group of Stanford students. Today, the company operates in 56 markets across 600 cities in North America. DoorDash hires drivers to deliver food to its customers. Many people choose to be a driver with DoorDash as a secondary form of employment. Drivers are not required to keep a specific schedule, so there is the flexibility to pick up work whenever desired.

If you have recently applied with DoorDash, there is often a delay before you get a response. The company policy is to perform a background check on all DoorDash drivers. Typically, this background check takes between 5-7 business days. DoorDash uses a third-party vendor, Chekr, for background checks.

    • Complete: The check is complete
    • Pending: Check is still in progress
    • Clear: A positive background check
    • Consider: There are some items that came up for the organization to review
    • Dispute: The candidate has disputed the report's accuracy, Chekr is reviewing
    • Suspended: The check couldn't be completed due to missing or invalid information
    • Invitation Sent: The link has been sent to the candidate to accept
    • Invitation Expired: The link was sent to the candidate but they did not accept within 7 days
  5. You will receive the details if your background check is still being processed or if it's been completed. If completed, you should receive a response from DoorDash soon about your application.
