It absolutely works that way in the US. Lots of jobs, financial applications, housing rental applications etc ask if you have ever been charged with a crime - not convicted, only charged - and even if you are found innocent, or the charges dropped because it turns out their initial investigation was wrong etc - it closes most doors for you.

- whimsicalism 3y agofwiw that map covers a significant majority of Americans in states with some box restriction
- fnimick 3y agoThe map itself is wildly misleading. New York is colored in the map, for example, because four cities in the state have some sort of restriction on it (some only for government employees, too, so private companies can ask whatever they want)
