Please don't say your offence was fare evasion! That would have involved dishonesty. Your offence was having no valid ticket for the area you were in.
The only people who can give you an answer to that question are the people offering the post, not an internet forum.Of course I would declare it at the start of the process, I was just wondering if it would disqualify me immediately…
That depends entirely on the job so there's no way we can provide a conclusive answer.Of course I would declare it at the start of the process, I was just wondering if it would disqualify me immediately…
As others have said, there's only one way of finding out...Of course I would declare it at the start of the process, I was just wondering if it would disqualify me immediately…
The most basic one is BPSS which won’t show your recent issue.
Where the highest clearance levels are concerned even spent convictions need to be declared since they will be seen.Regardless of the limitations of criminal record checks, the employer is entitled to honest answers as to all unspent convictions.

Thank you, it won't show but I will want to declare it anyway.BPSS which won’t show your recent issue
I have nothing to worry about if I don't declare it? (I will declare it) or I have nothing to worry about even if I declare it?Mostly it will just be the basic level so you have nothing to worry about.

No. You can't be penalised for not disclosing something that you were never asked about. But take a very careful look to make sure that the requirement to disclose isn't tucked away somewhere that's not obvious.So if they don't ask, don't even mention it, I don't say anything... Is that wrong?
I work for a firm that does government work, and where staff have clearances. If a clearance is required for a role, it is specifically applied for, and the employee knows they are in a clearance process. That is part of how the clearance works.Yes I agree with that of course. The problem is that they never ask! I think they just assume I (and/or the candidates in general) will be cleared. They don't even mention security clearance at all!. During all my interviews they mention that potentially I would be working on some projects for the government, but they never mention that it entails security clearance. I only found out about it by chance while browsing the internet.
