Recent misdemeanor affect a MBB background check?

Hi all-- anyone have personal experience or knowledge about this? Will a public intoxication charge (class c misd) cause an MBB offer to be rescinded? This charge happened quite recently (and at an older stage in life) so can't argue "young and dumb" ... just dumb =[

No, this will not affect you at you all. You just to be honest about what happened. As crazy as it sounds, you can use the trouble you got into as an advantage. Just acknowledge what happened and say that you learned a lesson from this mistake and you have improved your life. It's better to make a mistake young and learn rather than be old and make a mistake without learning.
