A friend of mine failed the MQ credit check - Sad state of United States

due to a bankruptcy she went through 2 years ago when her husband got laid off and lost health insurance and then one of her kids had an accident and was hospitalized for some time. They lost everything and had to move to another state where her husband found a job.
She is having a hard time finding a job because of the backgound checks. It seems a lot of companies are doing this now, sucks big time. I really do not know what someone's credit history has to do with working from home as MT!

Did MQ actually inform her of that? It's rather brutal considering how the economy is!
Yes, she called and that is what they said. - No message

They don't do CREDIT checks but BACKGROUND - checks and failure is due to charges filed.

If someone has a criminal background, they will fail the BACKGROUND check.
No, background check INCLUDES a credit check - Sad state of United States

My friend called MQ and they said she failed the credit check done during their background check (but would say no more), and the only thing it could have been was the bankruptcy. Besides, there is no criminal history in this case, although she did get a parking ticket once.
I was just as shocked as she was that companies can do this.
BG check can include a credit check but can also just - do background without the credit part. nm

Background vs Credit check - travelinmt

A background check is for any criminal history.
Credit Check is done for credit issues.
Obviously there are reasons for checking for a criminal background when you are hiring employess who will have access to patient's private info.
Credit checks are done to show responsibility. Companies don't like the hassle or cost of having to comply with orders of wage garnishment. In this economy it makes it really difficult if you have no job no way to pay your bills. This is one reason it is important to notify your creditors if you are starting to fall behind and try to work out some type of payment arrangement/agreement with them.
Traveling for work for many years; many clients wanted a background,credit chcek and fingerprints.
Weird, I passed the background check in March after filing bankruptcy less than 2 yrs ago. - kms

They didn't even mention it or question it. In fact, they specifically said they weren't looking at credit issues.

Well this is "hardworker" I passed my background check and we had filed backruptcy this year. So evidently they do not consider your credit, just if you have a criminal background. So everyone thank you for your posts.

Background Check For Coders Apr 12, 2012I was wondering about what on a background check would prohibit one from getting a job as a coder at a hospital. I know the obvious, but what about a misdemeanor DUI from the late 1980s on an otherwise clean-as-a-whistle record with someone who has great credit to boot? Would that be a deal breaker? The applicant would have the preferred credentials in place and would otherwise be a good candidate. ...
