A quick update on my process:

1) Got an option to convert into FT and I showed my interest in it.
2) After having confirmed I am not breaking my previous employer contract terms which was a year contract , I was asked about my salary expectation. I gave them an offer. Make sure you have something in mind before you try to negotiate. Those HR people are very smart to trick you.
3) Got counter offer within a week with the salary package that I had in mind.
4) They sent me offer paper with few days to accept or reject.

5) I accepted the offer.

6) Within few days they sent me all internal papers (health insurance , w4 and .....
And that was it.

No interview , no BG Check(they had done it when I first joined as contract employee and I believe they assumed it's not needed at this time. ) , no inquiry on resume or asking about submitting updated resume.

Overall the process went very smooth .

Hope this help some one one the same boat. If you have an option go for it , the worst that can happen is they will not hire you. And if that's the case there are thousands of consultancy who will place you somewhere.
