Four weeks in the USA for a criminal background check is unusually long. Most companies use a criminal background check firm, and results are returned in 72 hours to one week, on the average. It could take long if the company is conducting their own reference check, but I would suggest you contact the hiring company and inquire as to what the specific delay regarding your background check might be. Good luck!
