FT cancelled if I made an unauthorized trade?

Hey, before I started the SA gig at a BB, I had sold some options and then closed the positions out without clearance a few weeks in.

If I do everything else solid, would this a be a deal breaker for the FT offer? Do these banks actually care, or are these more in place to protect themselves from insider trading?
