    Background checks
    I was arrested for a felony offense that I did not do and was never convicted of. I landed a great job and now have to submit to a fingerprinting for the position. Will that show up? I reside in Georgia if that helps. Thanks.

    Hello M:

    Most background checks only report convictions, and you weren't convicted.
