Did you know that many employers now check your credit report before making you a job offer? This trend is becoming more and more common. Employers check this report because it can be a good indicator of responsibility. It can also red flag potential employees that may have severe financial issues or backgrounds that could possibly cloud their judgment on the job or working with money or financial information. Do you know what is on your credit report? Do you know that you are legally entitled to a free credit report every year? Make sure you are protecting yourself from identity theft and misinformation by knowing what your credit report looks like.
