Discussion - Current survey on site

So, you may have noticed that I placed a new poll on the page. I am eager to see what answers I receive.

Now, the reason I am asking is because I am curious as to how people feel if they're up for 'review', whether it be for a job or to move into a new location, and gage on what they expect to be judged upon for acceptance. Personally, I feel character and reputation are more important than background and credit. We've all made poor choices in our early twenties that have affected our credit or background, but those choices that we made builds character to who we are today, right? So far, I've only received two votes (at the time of this writing) and they both feel that background and credit are of more value (to them) than character and reputation. I would to invite those who vote to leave a comment as to why to why they choose what they did (you can remain anonymous).
