Misdemeanor charges may affect you in some job applications. An attorney cannot get this off your record since there was a guilty plea unless you can get a judge to hear your case again. Many employers that do criminal background checks only need an explanation. Be honest if asked have you ever been arrested and convicted.





Misdemeanor charges can, in many cases, be explained to an employer. Guilty pleas are common in these type charges because you just want them over and do not want to bring in all involved which can be a waste of time for most.





You can be the president of a bank, fly for airlines, do real estate sales, etc., etc. with a guilty misdemeanor plea. It also depends on the type of charge to be considered by employers.





Again, just be honest because it is on your record for life. Explain the circumstances to the best of your knowledge and remind them you just wanted this over and done with.
Reply:When asked about your criminal history, say, "I was young and foolish when I was young and foolish. A misdemeanor charge of public intoxication, in the year 1492, and I learned my lesson. Nothing since then."





If you try to hide it, you'll always have it hanging over your head. Openly admit to it, and they will probably consider it not to be a problem.
