Your website states:
Last year, 25 billion credit decisions were made based on FICO scores alone. These weren’t just decisions about whether you’d be approved for a new credit card but… Whether an employer will hire you… In other words, your score is a really powerful piece of information.
I visited your office earlier this month, but was unable to see anyone about that statement.
Despite unfortunate conflicting information, employers do not use credit scores.
What indicates that employers base hiring decisions on credit scores?
