Message: [QUOTE="dondk, post: 17751, member: 37"] That "ever" comment is a tough thing. By law is it NOT suppose to be discriminating, BUT it is. The hard part is the proof of discrimanation. I would not suggest falsifing an applicaition, but I would consider leaving it as vague as possible. Once in an interview I would come clean and discuss the circumstances. Again, it would depend on the charge, circumstance's and the behaviour thereafter. Some (key word) employer's will look at the person and not the crime from many years ago, but it does depend on the crime. I know of several employer's who disqualify on anything above a traffic violation, it is a tough call. If it was actually removed then I personally would answer no to the conviction, that would be ONLY after I was 100% sure it would not show up on a report of some type. If it was actually dismissed OR sealed you can answer NO to the "ever" question. Best of luck though, it is a tough position to be in... [/QUOTE]
