Hi guys,
I'm studying BCom and I'm about to graduate with ~81 WAM. Now, on my transcript, there is an academic misconduct for one of my subjects in my first semester of my first year in my undergrad. The issue revolved around me making a silly mistake and getting answers from an online forum for one of my questions in an assignment. I know silly error by me. However, this didn't affect my grade at all for my subject and no marks were detected, and I still managed to get a fairly decent mark on the subject (78), yet i was given this academic misconduct on my transcript. Now, my question is, will this look bad to employers and will it affect my chance drastically of getting a job in the future? and will this issue be mentioned every time I apply for something.

All help is appreciated.

To be perfectly honest, yes it could have an impact. At the very least you might be asked to explain it. It doesn't look good on your transcript.
