Will 1999 banruptcy affect getting sales agent job?

I am completing an online application for a insurance sales agent with a large company. It asks if you've ever filed for bankruptcy and states "if yes, contact your recruiter"

I do not think the answer should be yes because the Chapter 13 plan was completed ten years ago. But, I do not want to be misleading either. I do need the job, however, and do not want to not have a chance because I answer yes.

Look at the verbiage of the application form. It asks if you have EVER filed bankruptcy and I believe the word EVER would include a time period of 7-10 years and more. I recommend that you do as the form says. You don't want your employers to find out later that you did file bankruptcy and fire you for misrepresentation of facts.
