    Exclamation Will A Shoplifting Incident Appear on a Background Check

    I was caught shoplifting when I was 19 years old. It happened in Lord & Taylor. Police never came. The store workers took my driver license number, my ss number, address, a photo and asked couple of questions. I paid for everything they wanted. They never mentioned anything about the police and going to the court.

    Please let me know whether this information will be available for the employers when conducting a backgroung check? It looked like it was only a store record but I'm not sure if this is included in the background check. Please let me know. Many thanks!

    From what I know from checking these forums, if the police weren't involved, you wouldn't have been entered into any kind of criminal database.

    You're most definitely in the store record.

    Thank You for response. I just applied for a job and they do a background check. I'll let you know if this incident came out or not once they're done checking. Many thanks!

    I agree, this sounds like it was only a civil matter between you and the store.
