There was a guy hired by the city of denver as a mechanic who they had to

application.
That was a mere technicality.
Forgetting to tell your employer you're a convicted felon is a
technicality??
The head honcho stated on the news that they wanted the guy back because
he
was the best mechanic they had.
Don't bother to include a source on this or anything, Bullis. And why would
they want him back if he didn't tell them he was a convicted felon?
The thing is though, follow the instructions on the application.
You have to state your driving jobs for the past 10 years, that's federal
law.
If they only want to know about convictions in the past 5 years, do not
inclued this one.
But if you know the company goes into Canada, you'll need to let them know
about it.
So what you're saying is that a convicted felon shouldn't tell his potential
employer? You're an idiot, Bullis.
If they ask, have you EVER been convicted, then answer yes and explain.
