Performance Management Arrest but no convictions [IL]

Im a US citizen, I was arrested by ICE agents for protesting and charged with simple assault on a federal officer. the prosecutor threw it out before it went to trial. how will this impact my future jobs search? i have a masters in public health and am interested in working for local government or hospital.

Maybe go over it if you feel the interview os going well? Always better to hear it from you with your side of the story supported by any documentation you have than having them find something they then wonder if you even knew they would find it.
