Hello PFPS friends, Megan here. I saw a report on ABC News that many
employers are using not only education and work history but also credit
history to determine who get's hired and or fired. Is this a standard
practice in the industry? I posted the videos on my page for anyone
interested. Thanks

Friends of the Partnership--Please sign the petition for Roosevelt Scholars Act, a new idea that will help the federal government recruit the best and brightest talent in key fields.
http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/Roose
The Act will create a scholarship program to fund graduate-level education in key ...mission-critical fields (e.g., engineering, medicine and public health, foreign languages, information technology, and law, among others) in exchange for a federal service commitment.
The model is similar to the military’s ROTC program, which has proven to be an outstanding source of new talent for our nation’s armed forces.
Also, help us spread the word by asking others to sign the petition!
