    That may depend on the specific offense. Even if the expunged record would not be a legal bar to employment, an agency can generally still consider the incident and the details in any consideration of employment. Time and details matter in such things.

    Time can help to heal a dumb mistake as a kid, but how much of an impact it might have will depend on what you have done in the past 10 years since, and the specific details of the incident itself. Often, the offense a defendant might plead to is not truly reflective of the incident itself so any agency conducting the background will seek copies of any reports or other info on the incident to evaluate it.
