If you have a petty shoplifting charge, pleaded guilty and paid the fines, should you state so on your resume or not?

Shoplifting charges are something an employer would likely want to know about. However, most job applications are only interested in whether you have been convicted of a felony. While it is considered a crime of moral turpitude, unless an application requests that you list all crimes of which you have been convicted, it would not be one to list. As you know, honesty is the best policy, but it probably would not be wise to list it on your resume.
