My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: Calif.
I had a misdemeanor dismissed last year. When I apply for jobs, do most companies check the DOJ and if so what will it show?
State criminal offender records in CA are confidential. A few types of positions allow a potential employer to run your fingerprints through CA DOJ to see if there are any disqualifying convictions, sex offenses, restraining orders, etc. In general, private employers cannot inquire to DOJ about a person's criminal history. Public court records, however, are available should an employer want to check them.
