Of course it shows up. How many DUIs do you have?

Amazon who-dis OP Aug 9, 2019

None, my friend has one so I was wondering if it would be an issue when I refer him

It might be an issue when your friend gets an offer. It costs money to do background checks.

Is this a serious question?

Dui doesn't show up on background check. Unless your job is related to driving, there's another background check for that.

DUI is not a minor traffic citation, it involves an arrest and possible conviction. Why would criminal history be skipped in a background check? It likely would not prevent someone from getting hired, but they would see it.

Please do your research. Being pulled over for dui is only a misdemeanor offense. It's only more serious with an accident, injury, or death. I know for a fact it doesn't come up in background check for tech because my buddy went through it. I even saw his background check file. His conviction was less than 3 years ago. If it's a misdemeanor, definitely doesn't come up.

Ancillary question: I murdered 6 people a few years ago, but I'm out on parole. Do you think it'll show up on a background check for Amazon?

You should be a good fit for management and Putting people on PIP.

They may all be afraid to reject you. After you are hired, the same applies for promotions.

A DUI is a criminal offense. It’s a public record. So public that you will be denied entry to any of the Big 5 automatically. (US, Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand). As soon as they will scan your passport at the custom, it will show up on their screen.

But doesn't show up on a company background check

just be up front about it. you better own it before they find out and own you.

Google topCon Aug 9, 2019

No, only necessary if your role involves driving.

Manulife Financial myPeeBurns Aug 9, 2019

idk about the US but in Canada you declare that you haven't been convicted of anything in your job application
