Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida

I apply to a state agency and was offered a position. My application states, I

must summit any felonies and first & second degree misdemeanors. I was charged 20 years ago for simple battery and the outcome was a misdemeanor sentence and not a level first or second misdemeanor in George. I was denied the position because they state I omitted the information pertaining to the criminal record. Florida statue states,I am not required to summit any information if it doesn't apply. When I was ask to request documents to verify the outcome. I submitted the documents and it did satisfied the manager, because the court documents didn't give him the level of offenses. He decided to apply Florida statue to make his decision to withdraw my position. Can I pursue this matter further?

This is an employment law question, not a criminal law question so you should post your question there.
