Looking for advice from recruiters. I got a criminal speeding ticket (rural highway, wasn’t paying enough attention and went 90 in a 75) which is a Class 3 Misdemeanor. Mo criminal record otherwise. How much thought do recruiters in advertising put towards something like this in a background check?

*NO criminal record.

And I know maybe this is silly to ask but I’m considering if it’s worth the cost to get a lawyer and try to negotiate this off of my permanent record, for employment purposes. But if recruiters would look past it, I probably wouldn’t.
