The interviewer asks this question if having a valid driver's license and a clean driving record are part of the job requirements. They want to hear that you meet their requirements for the job. As a Juvenile Correction Officer, you may have to drive juveniles to a court or another facility. The interviewer wants to ensure you have a valid license and clean driving record to operate vehicles safely and that you will not be a liability if hired.

Focus your answer on describing what state your driver's license was issued in, the year it expires, and confirm you have a clean driving record. If you had any tickets, violations, or accidents in the past, describe the circumstances and the outcome as they will be discovered during your background investigation.

As with any interview question, avoid being untruthful in your response. If you do not have a valid driver's license or clean driving record, you must be honest with the interviewer and explain the situation.

"Yes, I have a valid Arizona driver's license that expires in three years, and my driving record is clean. I have copies of both if you would like to have a copy for your file."
