No otherwise an employer could hire you and have you drive when this could cause them lots of problems.

In Missouri, I don't know how a felony conviction can be sealed. Employers are entitled to see any records relating to a conviction, except in a juvenile case. You should talk to the attorney who handled the DUI case for you.
