I got a lead on a company that does not ask about convictions on the first application. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. They still run a background check later but consider it case by case. 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.

Ask the workforce centre about bonding programmes. They sometimes help employers feel comfortable.
