What companies check credit prior to job offer - asked for SS# and birthdate in interview


Posted: Aug 10, 2010

I gave before thinking about.  Now I am wondering should I have done such a thing.  If have had some financial issues due to the economy and my credit is horrible.  House almost went into foreclosure and such.  Consistently ran out of work until I took a full time in-house position.

I always tell them I will gladly provide SS# and DOB - upon receipt of a job offer. R.Raccoon (nm)

I know this has probably been asked so many times on this board, but I am currently working for a company as an employee, full time, and I'd really like to move on. I've been there 6 years and the only thing that is holding me back right now is the fact that I need to have a flexible schedule and I don't really want IC status.  Right now, I work 2 hours in the morning and 6-7 hours in the evenings. However, if one of my kids has a dance class or karate in the evening and I&# ...

Check Out Companies Before Applying!
Dec 01, 2014

Please, please, please, check out the companies that post on the job seekers board before responding to them!  I was just about to respond to a job posting when I decided to Google search the company first.  It turns out the company went under (under the same manager that posted the job) in 2009.  Yup, they might be up and running again, but there's nothing on Google about them other than they used to be a company under this particular person and they haven't been a ...

When Did We Stop Getting Credit For Standards? - Sm
Jan 06, 2010

Last night I did two fairly long duplex studies where the doctor says "use my standard" with a lot of "move this, take that out, insert this..."  Not difficult, but time consuming.  When I went in to look at my line count after my shift, I got a total of 20 lines for the two reports, or 16.48 cents!  What gives with this?  Did I miss the memo, or did they just not tell us?  Next week they'll be asking us to pay them when we actually get work. :o( ...
