do employers always ask to see a college transcript?

If you are a recent graduate with little or no experience they would be idiots not to ask. Its like getting a peek at there past performance appraisals. You have reason to be worried.

You can't.  That information is generally only available from your school or school district.  In some states you can obtain a transcript free...in others it is a nominal fee.

Yes, it certainly does.  My husband applied to college recently (he's 46) and almost got denied based on his GPA from almost 30 years ago.  Those records from long ago do exist and they are looked at.

From the little I know, yes, even though the work might not tie directly to your degree. If, for instance, you work at a pub for some hours a week consistently for a year or two, or more, it shows an employment history, the ability to hold a job, and so forth. \nI have a mate who put himself though two college degrees that way, and thinking of another graduate degree before he is done. Sainsbury's the job as of last word. \nI put myself through years of education in the part time work and school thing. It is nice to have some sort of history other than academics. Good grades mean nothing to an employer if the applicant is unable to work with others, etc.

If you want potential employers to see your resume, it isn't private.\n\nSome job sites will let you exclude some companies from seeing your resume, but I wouldn't bet my career that feature works all the time.\n\nIn general, don't post anything on a Web site unless you're willing for the whole world to see it.

It depenends on the employer you are applying for. But I think, being you are going to graduate soon this means you are going to join an entry level position were refrences and credit checks are not usually important. \nHowever, when climbing the corporate ladder then this issue becomes critical and you should look for any nigatives in your credit history.

It depends what you are applying for.  If it is for credit, they will usually check databases to verify the information you give, but if it is for employment, especially for government or high profile jobs they will send letters, phone calls, etc.  to the names that you list and may ask questions of the person you list on the form.  I have been asked questions of someone applying for a high profile position of his employment with us and they also asked many personal questions about him.

You prospective partner does not have a copy of his degree?  I still have mine and it was over 12 years ago.  The accreditation groups would not have any information on his attendance or graduation from the college.  They would only be able to tell you that the college existed.  Ask him, if another college both the closed college.  If it was, then they would have the records.\n\nI would check your prospective partner closely, it is very convenient to say that you attended a college that closed.

It is REALLY unlikely that an employer is going to check your credit history.  Even if they claim they have that right, or you give them that right when you fill out the application.\n\nThere are plenty of other ways to get screwed when trying to find a job, this one should probably be at the bottom of your list of things to worry about.\n\nGood luck.

will need transcript from current school only, i believe, since that school should have full records of high school credit.  Just check with one college and find out or ask your high school counselor

The state or provincial department of education should have a copy. good luck!\nFailing that, if you have any transcripts at all, hang on to them. You may have to use them.

Even a certificate in a frame is not adequate proof of a college degree.  Due to federal privacy laws, you can not just call a college or university to obtain information about a student or former student's grades, degrees or other records.  The end all and be all of proof of a degree is an official transcript.  The official transcript must be requested by the former student in writing or in person.  There are two types of Transcripts official and unofficial.  The official ones are sent via sealed envelope by the college.

A transcript for high school (and later college) is a collection of all your grades for every semester.  Ultimately it is used by colleges to determine if you get admitted.

You may have to write a letter to the school and have them give you a copy. I'm not sure if they are allowed to give copies though...but if they aren't, they certainly can write an official letter stating that you were a graduate and address it to any employer or other organization that needs it.

Degrees can be created on your computer.  So can transcripts.\n\nTemple University, my alma mater, requires a release form.  There may be a fee for the inquirer as well.  I don't have a problem doing this since I did graduate.\n\nYou may be able to verify graduation at some universities without the release form, if you have their social.  I just looked on Temple's website and I didn't find anything.

It's sometimes hard to tell how the employer will see the uploaded resume.  Your best bet is to use a resume with absolutely no formatting - no underlining, italics, not even a tab.  Try your best to get things lined up or bulleted without using tabs, alignment tools (left aligned, centered, etc.), or actual bullets (I use dashes mostly).  Yes, it looks incredibly bland, but at least it won't come out weird with tabs shifting things where they're not supposed to be, or with bullets that show up as ?s.  And if your resume is written well enough, the employer will notice and perhaps call you in for an interview, at which time you can present him or her with the nicer copy.

I stopped putting those little jobs on mine, and I don't think anyone cares.  (Having a lot there can make the resume hard to read, and bury the important work you've done.)\n\nMostly, employers are concerned with experience that actually relates to the job for which you're submitting the resume.\n\nUsually, if an employer wants a _complete_ job history (for government jobs, background checks, etc), they'll give you a separate form with plenty of legal language concerning the honesty of your answers.\n\nJust make sure you're completely honest about your work history when it comes time to sign forms.
