Will deferred sentences come up on employee background checks?
I recieved a couple dui’s 3-4 years ago while in college in Oklahoma, but got deferred sentences on both of them. Will this come up on an employee background check?

How thorough are entry-level federal government employee background checks?
When I was 19 years old, I got into an alcohol-related fight at my college. As a result of this incident, I was arrested, fingerprinted, spent a night in jail, and charged with “minor in possession” and “assault and battery” (a felony).
When I went to court, the charges were suspended, so they would be dismissed as long as I didn’t get into any further trouble, which fortunately I didn’t.
Now, six years later, I’ve finished my education and am considering applying for entry-level government jobs as an economic analyst in Washington, D.C. Although my state and federal criminal records are clear, I’m still concerned that my youthful indiscretion will show up when I apply for government jobs, since I was fingerprinted and arrested (the police report never goes away).
I think this would pose no problem for jobs in the private-sector, since my criminal records are clear. But are government background checks more thorough, and so it might pose more of a problem?
Thanks!

Many of my sister’s friends work for the government, and she’s been interviewed several times because her friends were trying to get jobs. She said to just be COMPLETELY HONEST. A lot of the times, they interview you simply to try to catch you in a lie. They’ll ask the same question different ways, etc. So just be honest and my sister also said that a lot of her friends did a lot worse in their past than you did. They just want to know that you can be trusted. I hope to work for the government when I get out of law school, so I know the anxiety you’re feeling lol. Good luck and don’t stress it.

Major tickets, criminal record, lawsuits, credit checks, education, military, and past employers. Some are looking if you have a facebook or myspace account. The government might talk to your neighbors and teachers. Just about anything except your medical care is private. If you do have something bad you should tell them about it and try to get a waiver.
