What the law gives you in Minnesota
A Minnesota employer cannot ask about your record until they have picked you for an interview, and after that state law gives you nothing.
Private employers Covered The timing rule covers every private employer in Minnesota. The individualized assessment and the written rejection notice in Minnesota’s criminal offender law apply to government employers and occupational licensing only, so any guide crediting private-sector workers with those rights is wrong. Minnesota clean slate expungement now clears many records automatically, two years after you finish a misdemeanor sentence, three for a gross misdemeanor, and five for most eligible felonies. Minn. Stat. § 364.021 · checked September 17, 2026
When they may ask After you are selected for an interview, or after a conditional offer if there is no interview This is the earliest point in the process a covered employer may raise your record.
