What is the name of your state? IL And Missouri
I live in Illinois and am applying for a job in Missouri. One of the questions the employer is asking in the application is Have you ever been convicted or pled no contest to a crime, or are you presently under chare for violating any laws (other than one that has been formally expunged by a court)?
I wanted to know is this question legal to ask. I was under the impression that employers can only ask about Felony convictions.
My other concern is I have been charged with a crime currently in Illinois the case is still on-going. Is it best to answer the question Yes or answer the question NO (if it is a illegal question to ask) or leave it blank.
