Default Credit Score/History and Hiring

Anyone have any info on how much the regionals dwell into credit histories and scores when it comes to the hiring process? Has anyone ever been offer a cond. offer of employment and then had that withdrawn after they ran the pria, credit, background etc. due to unpaid credit cards, medical bills, etc?

Pretty much any regional airline will be overjoyed that you submitted an application at this point.

Don't worry about it. My driving record was crap when I got hired. Do what you can to improve it in the future.

I know plenty of outstanding guys who have filed for bankruptcy preotction recently. They are now at Delta. If they ask just be honest.

The most disturbing thing is that an employer can violate your privacy in this manner at all!

Some of the wealthiest people I know have the worst credit.

Think about it for a second.

Regionals don't check your credit, they check your pulse...
