shotover Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Did the DUI occur in Thailand or another country? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poskat Posted August 19, 2009 Author Share Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) sorry, I should have said it was in the US. I am currently in the US and am being recruited for a job at Chulalongkorn University. Edited August 19, 2009 by poskat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gosompoi Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 None! Zero problem! Not an issue, and DUIs are traffic offenses not even criminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poskat Posted August 19, 2009 Author Share Posted August 19, 2009 in the US, DUI is definitely criminal, so I thought it be also in Thailand and would be a problem to the Thai Gov when applying for the WP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Unless the university requires a police report to get the job you will have no problem getting a work permit. The only crime that can prevent you from getting it is a violation of Thai immigration or labor laws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QED Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 No police check needed for WP, unless they did one without my knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiggy Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Don't drink and drive in the first place would be my advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OxfordWill Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 (edited) You supplying a time travel device with that helpful advice Wiggy? My friend lost his job when the uni did a chexck on his criminal record, but this is something they did on their own and not something which was part of his work permit application. edit: sorry, should add this was not the same uni as you! it was an international school.
