What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? New York State
Hi- i had one of those nightmarish scenarios you thought could only happen in the movies....
Arrested for felony after a noise complaint....the arresting officer charged me with assault and criminal posession of a deadly weapon- the weapon being my purse- yes my purse-. The person that they charged me with hitting did not file the charges, did not give a statement etc and I was entirely cooperative.
Charges were dropped by the DA almost immediately but now i have this horrific arrest record despite a dismissed case as NY law seals cases but not arrest records.
Job interview in progress for a major company, i have 3 ivy league degrees and a perfect record otherwise. At what point should I mention this? Even if they don't ask 'have you ever been arrested' i will have to submit to a background check and this will surely come up- what is the best way to handle this??? A lot of companies dont even do the full background check until after you have resigned from current job and started new one so i NEED to mention this but don't know when or how...i'm at round 3 but no application yet.
