Well if I'm a boss, I ain't gonna do it. Just gonna show some faith. The ****ing world hands most of us a load of **** daily. Some come out of it cleaner than others. I can't stand the idea of judging someone based on some arbitrary number on a piece of paper. Talk to them face-to-face and go with my gut. I'd rather be wrong than not give someone a chance.
Again, most (a very large percentage) pre-employment credit checks do not provide a FICO score and they are not basing pass/fail on a number. They look at number/amount of open collection accounts, trends in payment history, reliability, etc. It's pretty obvious to tell the difference between someone living off of credit cards to pay bills for a while and someone who habitually shirks their responsibilities.
