    Will a Wet and Reckless Charge Get My Job Offer Rescinded
    My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: California

    Ok this is my story 2 years ago I was cited for driving under the influence of alcohol. In court I represented myself and the DA offered me a reduced charge of wet and reckless with out me asking in exchange for my no contest, so I did. Recently applied for a job and where it asked for my criminal record I noted my wet and reckless misdeamenor and that it included informal probation and a fine. I interviewed for the job and received a job offer letter and the company sent me the information for the background check. I again fully disclosed the fact that I have a misdeamenor like I did on the companies online profile application along with the speeding ticket I have. I have disclosed this information to the company will I fail the background check? the offer letter says that if my background is inconsistent with my profile that the offer can be rescinded. I fully disclosed it and may be freaking out for no reason but I need your opinion on this please!

    Every company has its own policy on criminal histories and job offers or retention.

    If your job does not involve driving, your chances are better. A DUI or 'wet reckless' may raise concerns about a possible alcohol problem.
