Employers do not use credit scores.

See "CNBC reporting errors about credit scores, December, 2013."

An author named Geoff Williams is quoted in the NBC article mentioned above. His book mentioned in the article states, falsely, "If you're filling out a lengthy, wordy job application, there may be some very difficult-to-notice, legalese fine print giving permission to check your credit score."

That is impossible because the consumer reporting agencies do not provide credit scores for employment purposes.
