Can an employer check your credit without prior approval? Can they base decisions based on someone%26#039;s credit? Yes, they very well can. Most often now days, an employer will have you sign a sheet, and take the drug test etc. In that set of papers, if not the paper you signed for the drug test, will be a part to check your credit. I%26#039;m a Finance Director for a
large Auto Dealerships. They just don%26#039;t want the problems, with people owing a lot of debt, %26quot;that are way behind, and don%26#039;t pay their bills!%26quot; I was told that, per the man that just hired me, last week! I left Honda after 16 years! I can understand, if that person will be dealing with money etc. However, there are so many people suffering out there right now, I don%26#039;t feel that should be a basis for them hiring you or not!! It%26#039;s wrong !! I feel. If they like you, you fit the job, they should hire you! They also do a criminal background. Oh Yes, that is also, in the papers you sign with the drug test. They will then know your clean, and have no criminal record as well. Including speeding tickets etc. If your behind in bills, that should not hold up a respectable place of Business from hiring a person. You may want to tell them, if you have a few problems, and let them know, up front. That never hurts, as honesty is the best policy. Most people will understand, that a lot of people have fallen on hard times, and will give you a chance. Good Luck to You!!
