Mortgage With Bad Credit Chicago

Warning: Bad credit can blacklist job seekers

Your credit rating. Most people only worry about it when they're applying for a mortgage or credit card. But did you know your bad credit rating could keep you from getting the job you want?

If you're applying for a high-security job or a position with heavy financial responsibilities, the way you have handled your personal finances can color your chances of being hired in these sensitive, accountable situations.

Why is it anyone's business if you have a little 'bounce' in your checks?

Credit rating and job performance -- what does one have to do with the other? Apparently, plenty.

Clifton O'Neal at TransUnion credit reporting agency in Chicago notes: "Studies have shown a correlation between how people manage personal affairs and their job performance, especially if they're in charge of financial information."

It's a fact -- companies are going to snoop into your background.

Bank of America Leads US Regional Bank Profit Gains on Loans

July 19 (Bloomberg) -- Bank of America Corp., the No. 2 U.S. lender by assets, led U.S. banks reporting higher second-quarter profits fueled by a boom in loans and credit-card fees.

Bank of America, based in Charlotte, North Carolina, today said earnings rose 18 percent to a record $5.48 billion, or $1.19 a share, as its acquisition of MBNA Corp. buoyed in revenue from credit cards. SunTrust Banks Inc. and PNC Financial Services Group Inc. led regional banks reporting higher profits, while Bank of New York Co. led gains at custody banks.

U.S. banks' earnings are rising in part because of a drop in bad loans after last year's new bankruptcy law made it tougher for Americans to seek protection from creditors. JPMorgan Chase & Co., the No. 3 U.S. bank, said profit more than tripled to a record $3.54 billion as fewer credit-card customers defaulted on debts and trading revenue rebounded.
