There is no general answer that can be given. Each state has a specific laws and requirements for the EXPUNGING of criminal records. Check with your local court or contact an attorney - you will probably need to consult with one anyway, this is NOT a do-it-yourself project.

Not necessarily. This fact will be governed by the judge's handling of your case, and also dependent on your successful completion of the first offender sentence. First time offender treatment only applies as to your sentencing and treatment for the crime, and NOT against what you were charged with. If you successfully complete the terms of your first offender requirements the crime MAY be reduced to a misdemeanor, but the record of your arrest will still remain.

Can you work as a security having a misdemeanor?

Depends on the hiring Company and the nature of the Misdemeanor. If you contact the local court where the Misdemeanor was judged, you can get an expungement easily. Expungement is the erasure of the record after a period of time where no new and similar crimes have been committed. It is well worth the paper work (lots of it)to achieve a clean record. Back to the main question. As long as the Misdemeanor was not of a violent nature (domestic dispute does not count at the Misdemeanor level)or one of theft or the like, you should have no trouble getting hired. Most employers are not interested in Misdemeanor convictions of any type they only look at the Felonies. Y-THINK-Y
