I checked my free annual credit report and I found my job they had listed is one I left over six years ago. Does not having your current occupation listed have a negative impact on your credit report/score? If it does should I contact the credit bureau?
That is the only problem showing on my report.

It’s not needed but I would do it. When creditors look at a dredit application, they like it when the current employment matches the one showing on your credit history.
Has absolutely no impact on your credit. The only reason any employer shows is that you applied to some creditor who reported the info. I wouldn’t bother to change it, unless you have other things to dispute.
