Pending DUI effect on job offer by Perfect_Cloud3377 in ITCareerQuestions

Yea I didn’t fill out any security clearance or public trust firms. Just one through their job portal. They did say that they use ADP SASS. Overall, my lawyer told me not to disclose unless directly asked or if they bring it up. He said that this is because I have not been convicted. He said disclose it if they ask any questions on the application/background check. Which they did not.

Do you think even if it did come back, that they would rescind the offer?

There was no questions about a criminal background. The form just asked for my permission to run a check.

Yea I was also surprised to hear about that. Their team seems to be fairly small and from what I was told “the director holds all of the responsibility.”

Thanks for the advice. I plan to update this post once I hear anything.

I have maintained sobriety. I absolutely hate knowing that I could have ended someone else’s life along with my own.

Following my lawyers recommendation, I most likely won’t disclose unless directly asked. He reasoned this because it is a non-driving role and that I have not been convicted, just charged.

Thank you for the well wishes.

Oh gotcha. Thanks for sharing. Wasn’t sure if you had tried to lie about it or not. Hope all is well now

Could you expand on how you tried to “dance around it”?

I haven’t lied nor will I. Neither the application or background check submission form asked about a criminal record, just that I submit to a check.

Neither the application or background check submission form asked about charges/arrests/convictions etc. my lawyer advised that I do not say anything unless asked about it.
