Will an employer still be able to see your felony conviction if it is expunged?

No. If the expungement was granted it seals that from the publicly accessible portion of your record. That is the whole point of expunction.
The only exception to this would be if you applied for a position with the government. Law enforcement, the courts, and government agenceis still retain the ability to look into your entire background. Upon expungement, it is only private employers who may not access the expunged portion of your record.

The key is to never lie, but if a person's charge is expunged, he is released of all penalties and disabilities pertaining to a crime and is not required to ever list the offense again.Expunged Record of Conviction Defined: Here is the Penal Code Section that is being addressed. If you have questions, visit the State Law Page at: www.leginfo.ca.gov/Some app's ask only if you have a conviction (Misd or Felony) - with expungement you have no conviction, however, it still may show up on the fingerprint check and you will have to defend it, in most cases it is sufficient cause to end the process - & you're out! If the application states do not list expunged records, then do not list the conviction. If your record is a misdemeanor - the DOJ will purge your record after 10 years. If your record is a felony arrest with a misdemeanor conviction through plea or plea bargain, your record will indicate the felony arrest forever regardless of the expungement. If your arrest is a felony, with a felony conviction, the record will show and is not purged regardless of the court's actions. Use good sense, and spend a few bucks with an attorney or expert! Your answer is the key to getting a job.
