Does anyone know why a possible job wants to check my credit I know my credit score is low is that going to hurt me possible prevent me of getting the job
Some want to see it to determine if you are capable and ‘responsible’. I’ve had it checked for a job before.
@rayofmysunshine well that sucks I have student loans medical bills lots of them and a internet bill
@tosha6, I’d disclose that then. I don’t see how it could make the situation worse by telling them. If you have a plan implemented on taking care of it. Then let them know. Show responsibility.
@rayofmysunshine I read the email again it said it may include a credit check I thought about emailing her about it
When I applied for my job ( medical records/billing) they did a credit check because I would be dealing with a high volume of money. And I guess they think if you can’t handle your own money how will you handle there’s.
What kind of job is it? I've never heard of that before and that sounds kind of sketchy. I don't know why they would need that info..
They wanna see how you take care of your credit. Yes it could hurt you.
