No Problem
Aeronca,
If you only have one moving violation in 10 years, it's no problem. My advice to you is to admit to it, even if it's not in your NDR records because if somehow, someway your employer finds out about it later, you're toast. I did my own background check when I applied to the airlines. My three speeding tickets in three years from college weren't reported, but I listed them on the job applications, anyway. It's not a problem as long as you can explain that you were at fault and learned from it and a definite indication of maturity and honesty. I know I'm preaching to the choir on this one, but nevertheless, that's my input. It's really tough to get an interview and to blow a job opportunity on something they consider minor is just plain stupid. I was never asked about it during my FedEx or Southwest interviews and I had them listed on my job applications. Best wishes on your job search and Happy Holidays.
