It depends on who you are applying to and what the job entails. Many employers are using a credit score to weed out the 1000’s of applicants. They are assuming that a good credit score means they are responsible in all aspects of their life if they are in their finances. I know plenty of people who are great with money, but I would not trust to watch my dog.

Do you have a different question?
