You published, “According to the Society for Human Resource Management, 60% of employers check applicants’ credit scores for at least some of their job candidates as part of their hiring process.”
However, SHRM, itself, states, “A credit score is a number that gives a snapshot of a period of time; employers do not see this information.”
And, even you published, “Contrary to popular belief, employers can only see your credit report, not your credit score.”
We’ve been over this, Mr. Murdoch, but you keep publishing the same error. What are you doing to keep from misinforming the public again and what are you doing to clean up your mess on Yahoo!?
