Do the majority of banks run credit checks for IB interns? I keep getting conflicting information on this, some say yes, some say no.
If yes, is it just the BB banks? How about EB, MM?

If you're worried about a credit check at age 20 then you get bigger problems than an internship bud

How bad did you screw up
Pretty bad during covid. Charge offs are pretty old (5.5 years post default)
thought it didn't matter unless they are 10k+
Yeah i have one that's like $60k lol am I screwed
How tf you have a $60k chargeoff? I donMt think they’ll ever let that amount go Lmao
During covid.. Idk they never pursued it I just let it go. I'm thinking I'll rehash it and settle with them? Idk if it will change anything
