Legally, a misdemeanor can not be used as a reason to NOT hire a candidate. Unfortunately, that doesn't mean they won't hold that against you and not hire you, they just won't tell you that's why they didn't hire you.
I don't know where this person got their information, but to anyone else out there reading this and wondering if something like a little misdemeanor can be legally used as grounds for denial of employment, it most certainly can. A misdemeanor can ruin your entire life, and if it isn't expunged, it will destroy most of your opportunities for the rest of your life. Sure, you will get a job eventually, but it will be a very low-paying, physically arduous job with hazards like carcinogens lurking in every part of it, and you'll never find out if these hazards are ruining your health because those kinds of jobs don't provide any benefits whatsoever. And you won't be able to afford your own insurance policy because you will be living paycheck to paycheck just paying your own bills for survival. Want to take nice vacations? Want to travel and see the world? Want to own a house? Forget about it. Get a misdemeanor and your life is over.
