Employers will generally ask you about previous incidents and accidents, but unless it was a famous, spectacular crash they will only know what you tell them. Accident data bases aren't search-able by crew names!

It used to be urban legend that you had to crash an aircraft to get a Qantas interview! (As so many of the pilots we saw were getting interviews after incidents - although this probably reflects their experience level as much ass anything.)
