Falling behind on your bills? It could cost you a job.
An increasing number of employers are using credit checks to screen potential job applicants. So missed payments on your mortgage, car or credit card could keep you from getting hired.
According to a survey by the Society for Human Resource Management, 60% of employers are using credit checks when filling at least some of their openings. Only 35% reported checking credit in a 2003 survey, and only about 13% did so 1996.

The last company I worked for did a credit check when I was hired in ’07. They mailed me a copy of my entire background check and I was pretty surprised at how thorough it was.
