Hello, This website from the FTC Fair Issac's powerpoint presentation says that job info in considered: http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/creditscoring/present/sld008.htm But the Fair Issac website says they do not consider anything related to employment in the score?
That whole slide show is really interesting. It wasn't really clear what the slide show was designed to present, but my take on it is that it was presenting the benifits of having an in-house credit scoring system, and not presenting the scoring system used by the credit bureaus. If that is the case, then they're probably saying that job data can be used to determine credit risk, but I don't think that implies that the FICO scores from the CRA's use job data. HTH, Brett
