I've always thought credit checking for employment was a very valuable thing -- but not for the reasons above. It's a RESPONSIBILITY check. Is this person responsible for their money? In my field, be able to set a reasonable time estimate and work to it is important, and thus your credit report is a good reflection of setting a goal and meeting it. Within reason, of course.
