Background check (probation)

Hello fellow truckers, I have a couple questions and am looking for some honest answers. I have always wanted a career in truck driving. I have been watching videos non stop for years about the trucking industry and learning all the rules, regulations and safety protocols being a professional driver among the daily life of a lot of truckers out there. I have pre qualified for 3 company's that I am interested in. Veriha, Mills and Roehl. Getting to the point now. I am concerned for my backround check, as I do not want to quit my current job of 4 years to find out my backround check has failed. I don't exactly have a great backround. I have things like possession of thc (12 years ago, theft movable property (20 years ago) and a couple of other similar things of that nature (20 years old) my biggest concern is my more recent unfortunate charge. I won't go into detail of the charge. To say the least I title jumped a car title and was charged with forgery writing of objects. In turn was dropped to misdemeanor disorderly conduct and obstructing an officer. It's is so unfortunate because I never lied to the police officer. Also I was put on probation until restitution is payed 2000$ I am a law abiding citizen that had put myself around the wrong people. Anyway I have a clean MVR and am on probation only to pay the restitution. Not required to report other then over the phone to my probation officer. The sentence date for this charge is 1 year old. The charge was entered in 2018. Will they give me a chance possibly on something so fresh? Regardless I will not give up on trucking as a career I am just curious if I will have a problem getting into ANY apprenticeship or trucking company? Thanks guys and appreciate the help.
