Let me tell you a little secret from the HR world: Every employer you’ve interviewed for is assuming you’ve been in jail. That’s why they ask about gaps in your work history. They can’t legally ask about misdemeanors, but they can ask about why you were out of work for two months back in 2017. By default, they assume that any gaps in your work history are due to jail time, and it’s up to you to convince them that they’re wrong during the interview.
