Employers don’t really check credit when they do background checks and many apartment complexes would give her an apartment, although some will not. She’ll just have to look around. John
Yes, there are many jobs that don’t have to do credit checks. She should get a job first before looking for an apt. because it’s nearly impossible to get an apartment without any proof of income.
An apartment could be harder to find. Some crappy places don’t do credit checks, or will accept people w/ bad credit. But to get a nice apartment she may need to have a co-signer on the lease (another person with good credit who will agree to pay the rent if she doesn’t). Veekay
Have seen lots of people asking info on bad credits. Well, if you need to get your problem solved onarrange loans or other finance, and usually means you will pay more interest on any loan you take out. genelia m
Of course. Job should be easy. Apartment a bit tricky but you should be able to find a landlord who just wants proof of your current ability to pay and not check credit history.

apt yes with a job and no evictions
eviction and foreclosure are the two worst things on credit
next is lawsuits
as long as it isnt under 500 should be ok
