Impaired Driving is a misdemeanor as are most drunk driving convictions. DUIs are not felonies unless it's your third offense or there were aggravating factors such as someone was injured or killed while you were driving drunk.

Impaired Driving is a misdemeanor so you would not have to list that you were convicted of a felony. Only if they ask if you were convicted of a misdemeanor or any alcohol related driving offense would you need to list it. Good luck job hunting!
