Mine was pulled after I was offered the job as well, and it wasn’t the CJO it was the literal call from the CP. believe they have to be careful with how they conduct the background check. I don’t have perfect credit and didn’t hear anything about it. I guess it would be weird for them to call me after offering me the job, and then ask about my credit. This was was early 2018 though, so I have no idea what they currently do.


But I believe at certain legacies they pull credit as part of the background check, and they will inquire about it.
