The Law Forbids Discrimination
The Bankruptcy Code states that no employer may terminate your employment or discriminate against you if you have filed for bankruptcy relief. That means even if a potential employer performs a background check and sees that you have a poor credit report, that individual or entity is not allowed to discriminate against you.
Bankruptcy was created to give debtors a second chance and preserve the status quo. It was not designed to punish. That is why the government prohibits the discrimination on the basis of having filed bankruptcy. The idea is to help you get back on the right track, not keep you from getting a good job.
