It won't show anywhere. An airline won't know unless you tell them, they look at the logbook or directly request that info from the FAA, and they usually don't.
But remember, an airline will fire you in a New York minute if they ever find out you lied. Risky way of doing business. The airlines constantly pull people out of class for dishonesty, I've seen it twice.

Dude...don't worry about a silly check-ride before you even start your 121 career - it's like worrying what grade you got in 8th grade algebra after you've graduated College. Even "super" Pilots bust a checkride occasionally, and really, the only person it matters to is you. Nobody cares - I promise...! It's all good, just be sure to laugh about it with the interviewers

This has been discussed here many times. The records the airline receives from OKC do not include 8710s. The only way they can tell is if you logged it. That being said, honesty is the best policy. 8410s however, from previous employers will be included. At least for the past 5 years.

I don't have anything to worry about as I DID disclose it... It's just a what if question. So many people are sure it's one way or the other... Kinda strange that everyone seems to "know for sure" one way or the other.
