If they do a criminal background check the DWI may show up and you will have to explain it. IMO, I'd wait since it's not as important a discussion point UNLESS, you plead to something that was a felony instead of a misdemeanor. What I learned recently is that in most states DUI/DWI is a misdemeanor of the highest class, but reckless driving is considered a felony. Sometimes, people plead to reckless driving so that they don't get the insurance hit/penalty.
I have interviewed people where that information came up, and it was explained, and we continued with the interview. Eventually they were allowed into the company.
