Find the best financial services for you at: SMARTFINANCESOLUTIONS.NET - I've applied for a specialist position with Apple Retail. Will being made bankrupt recently be held against me? - I've been invited to an interview but have discovered they do a background check. Although I have nothing to hide, I have recently gone bankrupt and was once fined by a court for shoplifting in about 1995 when I was young and stupid. I’m sure this would now be classed as a spent conviction. However, would the bankruptcy be held against me if I were to be accepted for the position and what else would a background check involve? Should I continue with the application or is it a waste of time? -
