I have applied for a job and as of yet there has been no questions asking me about criminal convictions. It stated at the interview process I would be asked. I went to the interview and they didn't ask (they must have forgotten?) Anyway, if I am offered the job do I have to tell them about my criminal record? Am I legally obliged too? I am afraid that if/when I do they would take the job offer back. Are they allowed to do this? I didn't go to prison, I received a fine and 40 hours community service.
