Will I Pass a Background Check With a Misdemeanor?
A misdemeanor will show up on your background check. If you are applying for jobs, future employers can see the misdemeanor. Generally, misdemeanors are considered less severe than felonies, but they are still serious offenses that can carry jail time. Although we all make mistakes, misdemeanors will stay with you permanently. Some employers may have policies against hiring people convicted of crimes, including misdemeanors. Likewise, some employers may not hire employees with specific types of misdemeanors that the employer feels may impact the ability to perform the job duties. For instance, a house cleaning service may not want to hire someone with a theft or trespassing misdemeanor.
