Credit Check
I worked in the employment screening business for years. I can tell you without any hesitation that they need your written consent to pull your credit. Sometimes the language is written into your original application, but really should be a seperate document. It is against the law for a private employer to pull your credit without your authorization. Period. Criminal, civil court records etc. are fair game. But credit reports are a big no no without your ok.
