If they don’t ask don’t tell. These usually show up on a background check if they do one. They will usually ask about it then.

Don't quote me but I think background checks go back 7 years.

Yup statute of limitations up to 7 years.

Excited for you, good luck!

I don't believe it's going to be an issue. I had a DUI on my record for years it never once came upz

I’m fairly sure that misdemeanors do not show up on background checks. No need to bring anything up unless you’re specifically being asked. Also the question is usually “have you been convicted of a crime”, not “have you ever been arrested”. I have dismissed misdemeanor charges that I’ve never disclosed and it’s never come up.

It’s very discouraging to continuously receive these rejection emails. With 9 years of supply chain experience, I am not sure why I would not be able to at least get an interview for entry level roles that require no experience. Not just this one pictured but others as well. I’ve applied to maybe 60 positions since May, both mid level and “entry” and no interviews. I’ve had my resume professionally re-written twice. Not sure where the disconnect is. Anyone else going through this same thing?
