Will they find out about my past in my finance job interview?

Please use common sense and protect your reputation. We would like you to succeed and lying is NOT the way to make that happen. When you are found to have lied to the company that is hiring you, you will most likely be fired. Not only that, but this likely kills all of your exit opportunities and can derail your career very quickly.

There's also a good chance you won't be able to get a job again in the industry. Getting fired for lying to your company about your past is something that will spread fast. Your reputation is your most important asset. Think twice before putting your entire future at risk.
