If your misdemeanor record is sealed, do you have to tell?

future employer of a sealed record?
no satchel is considered closed
Plus its a misdemeanor.
you are only required by law to tell them of felony's.
and to be exact restricted by the statue of limitations, to 7 years.
Some times it is seen as an act of good dependence if you tell them.
Sometimes it will close you off from the job.
The answer is not so clear cut. 1. Why be the record sealed? Were you a minor at the time of the offense? Juvenile records are commonly inaccessible to the public. 2. What was the offense? A crime of dishonesty like theft or fraud? 3. What is the exact request for information on the application? 4. What type of job are you seeking? If law enforcement or government, full disclosure is essential. If you supply more facts, that would be practical.
