<p>I'm an undergraduate freshman and made a stupid mistake in this semester. I shared my assignment with someone and he submitted an identical one with mine. I was convicted as disciplinary probation and its now in my disciplinary record. I m now nervous about its influence on my job opportunity. So do employers usually ask about students' disciplinary record when students are seeking jobs? Can someone who has experience seeking jobs give me some information about this. Thanks a lot.</p>
<p>I don’t know about employers, but study abroad and grad school applications seem to ask about any disciplinary record along with your academic record. </p>
<p>Employers aren’t going to care about things you’ve done in college; if you do something bad enough to warrant potentially withholding a job offer, you would not have been awarded a diploma. Employers often do background checks and reference checks, but they are to see if you have any criminal convictions and if your resume is accurate. I wouldn’t worry about a note on your record for purposes of job searching.</p>
