It's no different than the latest method companies are using to screen employees...credit checks. It gives you insight into what type of person you're dealing with.

From an employers viewpoint, I want the best of the best working for my company. If you have bad credit, or are a drug user, you aren't in that group IMO.

First of all your not going to get the best of the best because they already have their own companies. Secondly I disagree that your getting the next tier either, especially with sales people. If were talking about regular labor type jobs it just doesn't matter. It's too easy to hire and fire those types I'll just evaluate their performance.
