I'm sorry this happened!
If you're applying in banking/accounting ... maybe shift your focus to corporate retail, logistics, manufacturing, etc
give you the opportunity to make some money and get your credit right and get more experience

Not only do they do this but they can send you a rejection letter before you even submit your app. True story.

Wvery job that deals with finances dont check your credit history. Some are satisfied with a background check. I know what it feels like to have a job offer rescinded

Its complete bull. Sorry. I don't agree with it at all. A person is not a credit score. PERIOD.
| This. I'm sorry this happened to you. For every person who has bad credit due to being irresponsible, there are several people who have bad credit due to circumstances out of their control. People lose their jobs. People get sick. Things sometimes happen beyond your control. Try for another job and do your best to repair your credit with what you have going.

This is not my first time working around large amts. Of cash and my credit has never been an issue. This job rescinding their offer caught me by surprise.

This happened to me but my credit was A +++ However, a person who I was an authorized user on their card stopped paying their credit card, and although it didn't effect my credit score, that particular credit card delinquency was reported on my credit report. According to the Fair credit reporting act, it shouldn't have been on my credit report because it wasn't my credit, and my credit worthiness wasn't determined for that line of credit. They immediately took it off my report, but it still cost me a job.
And the job had nothing to do with money.
