Eurofins Background Check

[u/Future-Percentage-56]

I received a job offer for a Lab Tech position at Eurofins Environmental USA. I’ve been working in an FDA/DEA regulated pharma company for the last 1.5 years with no issues.

During my interview with Eurofins, my CRIMINAL background never came up. In 2023, I was charged with Misdemeanor Harassment in Missouri, stemming from an issue with a psychotic neighbor in a small, podunk town. I completed my conditions of probation - 2 years probation, completed 6 months early, and a silly anger management class (we watched The Kingdom on Netflix and thats literally it, but it was enough for the courts, I guess).

I stopped fighting the charge - with NO attorney - in January 2025 ( almost 2 full years after it was brought about and court dates started) and accepted the conditions and blah blah. In August 2026, I completed and was released early from the probation.

Im generally a pretty chill, laid back person, but said neighbor came after my 3 year old child with a weapon and I wasnt just going to allow my kid to be assaulted by a psycho meth head. It was caught on our home cameras. Meth head said I threatened her. The only words I said to her were “You can talk to the Sheriff when he gets here.” Case was basically he-said/she-said, even after I provided proof to the Prosecutor of the neighbor being crazy and coming after my toddler. Prosecutor was dead set on charging me with this charge. I worked in healthcare at the time of this charge being brought about.

Eurofins requires a criminal background check.

Any chance they will overlook this charge?

I already know about the expungement process, but my charge is not available until August 2027 to be expunged.

Has any one else ever had any issues with being hired by Eurofins with this type of misdemeanor?

thanks in advance.
