Also, "Many third-party background checks do include criminal record information, including arrests that took place during the past seven years. If someone applies for a job with an annual salary of $75,000 or more, the seven-year limit is lifted and arrest records many time may appear on the background check." And, "If you are planning on a career that requires you to obtain a professional license, you may have to disclose your arrest record as part of the application process. Whether the arrest affects your ability to receive a license depends on state law and the licensing board's policies."
