Will Possession of Marijuana Show Up on Background Check? NEED HELP ASAP!?
Question by Eric: Will Possession of marijuana show up on background check? NEED HELP ASAP!?
So basically I’ve just been offered a position at a ups facility in Connecticut. All they are waiting for is my background check but i have a question.. 6 months ago i was “arrested” for possession of marijuana (small amount) and since then have been placed in a drug education program (which i still attend for another month). So my main question is
1. Will this show up on my record as a conviction or what??
2. Does this mess up my chance for getting the job (package handler)

You took a deferred sentence.
Taking this class is in exchange for a sentence. How do people not understand their sentence!!!??
You accepted a 1st offender diversion program – a drug class in exchange for no record. Paying the fines, completing community service and / or a drug program leaves no record of conviction.
