I’d disagree - employers in my experience and my prof has told me as well, don’t ask for GPAs. They’re primarily used for grad school but very rarely (if at all) in interviews.

From my experience going through recruiting, that is absolutely not true. For entry level jobs, GPA is incredibly important for business related fields

I don’t know what fields you’re looking at, but generally for the most coveted positions in business (investment banking or consulting), GPA is used a resume screen and generally if you have a sub 3.6/3.7, you’re probably not even going to get a 1st round interview. Even for less coveted positions, GPA is still incredibly important and you’ll see for many/most internship applications that they have 3.0 or 3.5 GPA minimums.

You’re expected to have your GPA on your resume, and leaving it off is usually a big red flag to HR.
