What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California

back in 1996, I was arrested in a Prostitution sting. On the advice of my attorney (now deceased), I pleaded nolo contendre. The court Misdemeanor Disposition Order is checked "PRONOUNCEMENT OF JUDGEMENT IS ORDERED WITHHELD AND CONDITIONAL AND REVOCABLE RELEASE IS GRANTED FOR A PERIOD OF 1 YEAR(S) ON THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS:"

I followed all terms and conditions, and I have never been arrested for any other offense.

My questions are as follows:

Can I answer that I have never been convicted of a misdemeanor on an employment application, or is there something else that I need to do first?

I know it is strange that I am just following up on this after so many years, but it has never been an issue before.

As long as they don't specifically ask about deferrals/withheld adjuciations, etc... I would say you could answer no.
