Bad Credit Can Keep You From Getting That Job

Interesting story today on MSNBC.com about how bad credit can keep you from getting a new job: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/35512038/ns/business-eye_on_the_economy

What a bitter pill in today's economy. People have bad credit histories for all kinds of reasons, but that doesn't necessarily make them bad people or unreliable. Stats show that more and more employers are checking job applicants credit histories before hiring. The good part is that there is some backlash. Checking people's credit should be limited to those occasions where an employee would be handling money for your company, critics say.
