<prompt> Human: Hello,I am seeking advice on what to do next after my job offer was revoked. Back in mid March I was hired as an operations specialist For JP Morgan Chase. I am 22 years old and in May I graduated with a degree in Supply Chain Management. My start date was set for July 26th, everything was going smoothly until they found a Misdemeanor I had received back in 2012 for a MICFalse Reporting to an officer. This charge had been dismissed but still showed up on my background check. On July 25th i was notified that I was no longer eligible for employment. I was planning on receiving a 5000 signing bonus to pay off my 2500 in credit card debt that has been accumulating since I graduated from college. I have 45,000 in student loans currently. As of now my credit is good as I have been making payments on both the credit card and student loans. Can anyone give me advice on what my next step should be? I would really like to avoid screwing up my credit. Is there anything I can do to appeal my ineligibility for employment? will this charge show up on other background checks? Where should I be looking for a new job?  <response>: I think you should post this in Legal Advice. People get arrested in error from time to time; that they rescinded the job after the charges were dismissed doesnt seem responsible for their HR. You were not guilty, you were not convicted. Legal Advice may be able to help you out with that angle while others talk about personal finance here.
