<prompt> Human: I dont understand why a new employer should have access andor need to know my spending habits. I show and exhibit good faith and character, hence the reason I was offered the job, but I just did a background check, and they want to see my credit score. That doesnt make any sense.Edit: Job has nothing to do with financials. Job is middle-level corporate job. Nothing to do with insurance or anything relative to that. Edit 2: I should note, I was offered the job already. They gave me the call Monday. It would be very outlandish to rescind an offer if my credit score was bad, but my score is fine. In other words, I dont find it by any means warranted where I need to explain my money situation to a complete stranger, nonetheless, for a job that has no financial tie whatsoever. To me, that screams lawsuit. Edit 3: Just got an email from them regarding my background check in which I had to call because there was a delay in processing. Turns out that because Ive lived in more than 1 state, the response on everything is taking longer than expected. In my eyes, it feels like this is a red flag from the email and sense of how this is all being conducted. I have nothing to hide, but it feels outright weird and invasive that all of this is going down just for a mid-level corporate job. If this were a upper-level position that required a security clearance, or financial handling, I wouldnt think twice, but because of all of this, it leaves a very bad taste in my mouth.  <response>: Refuse. Your credit isnt their business.
