Qantas Airways employs nearly 30,000 employees who must pass a criminal record check. You must be able to pass the criminal background check and may even be asked to present one in your interview. Your answer can be short and to the point. Honesty is the only course of action here. If there are marks on your record you have concerns about, disclose them upfront. Your candor will be appreciated. The marks on your record might not be deal breakers, especially when you have the opportunity to put them into context. However, lying will disqualify you from moving forward for your lack of integrity, as well as cost the funds to perform the background check.
