Would misdemeanor warrant in another state come up in pre-employment background check?

Would a misdemeanor warrant in another state show up on a pre-employment background check?





I have been pulled over for traffic infraction but the police never said anything.





I know I should take care of this, and plan on doing so next time I go back to visit in June, but for now, just wondering.

Would misdemeanor warrant in another state come up in pre-employment background check?
Very likely, if its a decent company that they use to do the background checks. They will find all of the places you have previously lived, and at a minimum, run the police reports for you in those states. I guess if you were there on vacation or something, and they use a less than great background checking company, they may not check all 50 states databases. For a misdemeanor, its not surprising that an out of state officer wouldnt see that.

Reply:It depnds on how the company does their background checks. Most check nationwide, so, yes, it would come up. Some only check the local counties or state.





In any event, most misdemeanors cannot be used as a basis to disquality someone for employment (there are exceptions for drug-and alcohol-related misdemeanors.) A traffic infraction should not be enough to disquality you from employment.





Good luck.
