Texturing your approach to suit the situation reflects a keen understanding of professional norms and personal discretion.

Some scenarios might call for early disclosure, while others may allow for the conversation to take place further into the hiring process. Our team at Dietz & Jarrard PC will sit down with you to pore over the job description and employer background, ensuring we tailor our advice to the situation at hand.

When discussing a sensitive topic such as a previous DUI, the language used can influence the employer's perception. Crafting the narrative in a way that underscores learning and accountability can favorably distinguish you as a candidate. We offer guidance on how to communicate effectively, ensuring that you do so with both clarity and tact.

It's not just about stating facts; it's also about weaving your experiences into a story of personal growth. We aim to help you frame your disclosure in a way that resonates with potential employers, and that paints a picture of resilience and responsibility.

We'll help you become aware of your rights as a job applicant, including what employers can legally ask about and what you're required to disclose. Our aim is to empower you with knowledge so that you can approach the application process with confidence and assurance.

Seeking our guidance means taking advantage of our extensive expertise. You're making an active choice to present yourself as a reformed, reliable, and reflective individual, ready to contribute to the workforce positively.

Our team helps you articulate the steps you've taken since the DUI, including any courses, community service, or other reparative actions. This illustrates to employers your proactive stance on rectifying past misjudgments.

A DUI doesn't negate your professional skills or potential. Our strategy involves shifting the conversation to demonstrate your current capabilities and how they align with the employer's needs.

Through our guidance, you will learn to artfully bring the employer's focus to the present-your recent accomplishments, skills, and how you're the right fit for the position.

One practical tactic is deciding between voluntary disclosure and the possibility of an employer discovering your DUI independently. We help you weigh the pros and cons of disclosing upfront versus waiting to be asked.
