15 years seems to stick out in my mind the last time I applied for a securities license, but I may be just imagining things. I think it also depends on the type of crime, they would likely view a felony conviction for embezzling grandma's life savings differently then a couple ounces of pot. Your best bet would probably be to talk to your recruiter and be honest with them they are going to have to sponsor you to get the license anyway.
