New to the group
Hello I am 29 years of age in the central new york area (Syracuse) I have a non violent burglary on my record from 2015, I am 3 years clean and sober from all mind altering substances! Having trouble finding a desk job! I don't want to work construction or any manual labor really, Standing All day gets to my back, however I would consider demolition if that's the only option in that field. A driving job would also be ideal! I do have a associates degree in networking administration! I am a fast learner and have a great personality (considering starting a YouTube channel even) I would like a job that let's me utilize my brain, personality and creativity rather than just my physical abilities! Thanks for reading and I hope to hear from someone !
Hi VintageVay 315 welcome!! We are so glad to have you. I am so sorry to hear that things have been a bit difficult for you as of late, but so thrilled you are taking care of yourself. Many people here on Jobcase can certainly relate to a lot of the things you have faced. Have you considered [truck driving] (https://helpforfelons.org/become-truck-driver-with-felony/) before? I know you mentioned that might be something you are interested in? I think with any job your background check will depend upon if they feel they can overlook the past and it seems that most truck driving positions will do just that, but again it does depend on the circumstance. I do know that [US Xpress] (https://www.usxpress.com/) is hiring right now. They are a GREAT company so make sure to check them out. Also, we have an awesome [trucking group] (https://www.jobcase.com/groups/6a88e3e6-ffb0-4e38-8522-9acba52f6b26) you can join as well! Let us know how else we can help!
