I got a lead on a company that does not ask about convictions on the first application. It has been a long 5 weeks. The HR contact was kind and direct. Did they ask about it in the interview?

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

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
