Background Checks for Employment

Surveys show that up to 96% of employers require employees to undergo some type of background check – sometimes including a credit check – during the hiring process.  Why do employers want this information? It could be for several reasons. For instance, if government security clearances are required for the job you are interviewing for, an employment background check may be required. For positions involving accounting or financial responsibilities, credit reports can provide insight into how financially dependable you are.
