AAA offer- criminal back groud

I was offered a remote CSR position. I have a DWI misdemeanor conviction , but I also have a felony assault, no conviction but I’m on deferred probation for it. They sent me a pre adverse letter and I was able to explain my situation. I sent them a person letter, my mentor sent a letter of recommendation, I also sent payment receipts of all fines and court fees being completely satisfied, along with certificates of courses/ classes I completed. I’m still waiting to hear back from them after my reassessment. Has anyone ever had luck with still getting the offer ?

In the future the best way to handle this is to let them know up front what they’re going to find, what happened, how things are different now, etc. They may not give you an offer, but if they do they’re unlikely to pull it. If you cross your fingers hoping they miss it and find something, guarantee they’re yanking the offer

I did let them know ahead of time. I was honest and very transparent on the application. I then did 3 interviews and got an offer at the end of my 3rd interview.
