How important is a credit check when trying to get a finance related position?
gs_analyst asked:
Im about to graduate with a B.S. in Finance from a respected university (Lehigh). My gpa is good, however, people have been telling me that my crappy credit report is going to prevent me from getting a job period. If that’s the case, what can I do? I’ve paid most of them off; but the fact is, at one point they were negative delinquencies.

at least semi important. you should be able to manage your finances before attempting to handle someone else’s.

Look at it this way, in most financial positions you have to handle money, sometimes large amounts of it.
Would you want to hire someone to handle your money if they could handle their own?

Your credit report will be pulled in almost every field today. But the only field where your report it really matters to the employer is finance.

It varies from one company to another, but anything in the banking/finance industry will put more weight on it than many other positions.
My friend just got a job as a teller for a bank only to have it taken away after the credit check.
Continue getting rid of the old delinquencies and paying on time in the future. Establish a couple new accounts. And go online and dispute every paid collection/delinquencey– you can usually get atleast a few removed even though they’re valid, because old creditors dont bother to respond.

I must say, as considerably as I enjoyed reading what you had to say, I couldnt help but lose interest after a while. Its as if you had a wonderful grasp to the subject matter, but you forgot to include your readers. Perhaps you should think about this from additional than 1 angle. Or maybe you shouldnt generalise so significantly. Its better if you think about what others may have to say instead of just heading for a gut reaction to the topic. Think about adjusting your very own believed process and giving others who may read this the benefit of the doubt.

I actually relocated to South Florida 5 calendar years ago (2007). I remained down here for about 9 months at that time and progressed to straggle around the country. Within a year of departing I decided to come back for good, it was the reeffishing that called me back. Right now there is nothing like it, if you have never ever fished South Florida then you are missing out– that simple.
