It is possible that the background check may not make it a big issue or at least might be taken as so long ago that it isn't relevant anymore. Really not sure.

I had to fill out a criminal history form for them and put down the DUI and date and a short description. I really just didn't realize that the judge didn't dismiss what the officer alleged. I guess he couldn't because I pleaded no contest. Ugh.

This will become even more problematic later on but that is another issue. Right now I just want to try not to let this overwhelm me.
Always discuss it with them ahead of time. Way better to tell them now than for them to discover it. Always way better.
