DUI on record?

I'm an associate at a MM PEG and am working with a few HHs to move to a MF. I was convicted of a DUI late last year (first time, misdemeanor, did not damage property or hurt anyone). I know that I'm a selfish asshole for driving under the influence, and I regret it deeply.

Will this be an issue with firms?
