If you only have your private SEL then i wouldnt be too worried. There is gonna be time from now until you go for an interview at a regional and that time will be long enough to let the dust settle. There are plenty of people that get hired everyday with tickets and violations which have happened within a year or two of the hire date. The amount of time you are going to have from when this happened until your first interview is more than enough. Pilots are in need..... Years ago (decades) it was almost required to have a ticket because it showed you were a darring person! (not so much anymore though). Just take Johnso29's advice....still report it on an application. Never ever try to hide something on an application.
