Is it common for companies to check the credit history of job candidates? Why would they care? they're the ones paying you.

- wolfgang42 5y agoDunno if it’s common, but the justification I’ve heard is that if you have financial problems you’re more likely to be tempted to commit petty theft and/or embezzlement to compensate.
- dhosek 5y agoIt varies on sector. Banking/financial is much more likely to do this than other sectors. It's also more common lower down the economic ladder, just one more way we punish the poor for their poverty.
