Employers that hire people with a record, St. Louis - 9 months and counting

I got a lead on a company that does not ask about convictions on the first application. I have read a lot of threads here and could not find my exact situation. They still run a background check later but consider it case by case. Has anyone worked at these places?

Be honest, brief and forward-looking when you talk about it. They care more about what you did since.
