Job hunting is never an easy or fun thing to do, especially in Chicago. It can take weeks and even months of searching for something you want to do or that pays well until you finally break down and take the first thing you are offered. The truth is that many people are grateful for what they can grab right now because of this economy and many are trying to go back to school in hopes that they can improve their chances of getting an even better job. Colleges in Chicago have actually seen an increase of enrollment despite the hard economic times. However many people would be surprised to learn about the one thing that may keep you from getting hired and you never even saw it coming.

Over 40% of companies in the United States now run a credit check when you apply for a job. Because of the high unemployment numbers many open positions are meant with dozens and in some cases, hundreds of applicants, most of whom are very qualified for the position. To help separate candidates many companies have decided to run a score check to find out if the person is financially responsible or if they have any law suits on their record. This use to pertain only to jobs that included; accounting, bookkeeping and cash handling, but now includes other jobs. This is also not a new trend as over 20% of companies ran a check in the 1990's.

Now that you know how your score can impact your job status you need to know how to fix it fast. Credit repair is great because it can fix any score no matter the reason it was damaged including; identity theft, repossession, bankruptcy, foreclosure, missed payments, over checking your number, and much more. Credit repair can fix a score lowered by all of those and it can do it in weeks.
