Hey everyone,
I just accepted at job offer for utiltiy worker out of Huntington ,Wv. It's been a little over a week since Ive submitted all background check forms and took my physical/drug screen and strength test. My question is about the background check. When I was 19 I got a DUI. I am 23 now and since then have had nothing on my driving or criminal record. I was just wondering if this would hinder me in getting this job. I have been try to get on the railroad for about five years now and I'm just hoping that a mistake I made when I was younger hasn't affected this opportunity. I didn't not lie about any information on the background forms knowing that trying to hide something is an automatic disqualificaton. I don't remeber the forms asking anything about a DUI but do remember they asked about moving violations in which I marked yes of course. Hopefully you all can help me out a little bit.
Thank you
