Legal Question in Criminal Law in Alabama

Youthful Offender/Job Application

My brother was sentenced to rehab and three years probation for a felony. He has finished rehab and is looking for a job. Does he have to tell future employers about his criminal past if he was sentenced as a youthful offender but has not completed his probation? If he does, can you tell me what youthful offender status does help with? Thanks in advance!

His record is sealed and not available unless a federal agency does a background check. He does not have to state a conviction because he was not convicted.
