How long do Toys R Us background checks usually take?

Last Tuesday I got a call from the Toys R Us that I'd applied at saying that they were offering my the position and that they were going to do the background check so I should go out and make sure I have everything for my uniform ready for orientation. They said they'd call me back to let me know when orientation was. It has been a week now and no call, I know there is nothing that would come up in my background check so I was hoping someone could tell me how much longer this is going to take and what I should do. What could be the hold up?

A friend of mine told me when she got hired (at a completely different company) that it took them a week to give her a call.

When I was the HR Manager at a Toys R Us, I would see very different results. When I spoke with the company that does the checks they told me the turn-around time is normally around 48 hours but there are some counties that use such old programs and methods that you may have to wait more than a week. Name changes can also cause delays or if a county you lived in reports a misdemeanor or felony. If they do, it goes to Corporate and they decide if it would disqualify you from consideration.

The other possible reason is that after the HR Manager said they wanted to hire you they were told that they could not by the Store Manager or Regional HR Manager.

There is no harm in calling the HR Manager and asking, though.
