Had they disclosed the felony would they have made it that far?



Maybe. But they definitely should have brought it up before accepting the offer.

There's a whole host of crimes out there that you could have committed and be hired after. But the opportunity to explain yourself looks much better if you do it before accepting the offer.


I have heard of employers allowing you to explain them, yes. Example: Felony DUI: explain your remediation steps, AA, etc.
