Experian on credit scores and employers, 2006

In its November 1, 2006 advice column, Experian wrote: “An employer wouldn’t necessarily receive a credit score with the credit report. That would depend on its policies and procedures.”

In 2007, Experian said: “We do not score for employment reports… If you chose to do that, I think you would be breaking the law.”

In 2008, Experian said, “Experian’s business policy prevents the inclusion of credit scores with an employment report, at Experian called Employment Insight.”
