Picking up the pieces
Ex- convicted felon. Life on reset. Need someone who believes in second chances to offer a good paying job with room for advancement. Qualify for federal bonding and work tax credit
Need help
Are there any jobs that accept felons? I’ve been sober for 5 years now. I volunteer and teach “smart recovery” at Hendricks Regional Health Hospital. I am very dependable and hardworking. I just can’t seem to find any decent jobs.
I'm having a problem finding a job because my felony is not 5 years old yet
My felony likes 1 year being 5 years old and I can not find a job please some advice I have training in Microsoft, Windows 10 and in Opera and I have management skills and 20+ years in customer service #stressful #advice #record
Finding a job
It is so hard finding a job with a misdemeanor that’s so silly and to have a associates degree in psychology
I felt proud to work for #FLDOC when...I was a Chaplain at at major correctional institution. I worked 10 years as Chaplain and it was the best time I served in ministry.
Prison is a great place to minister as a christian.
How does someone with 4 felony convictions but now has 5 yrs clean and sober pass a background check? I can't get a job anywhere even though I turned my life around.
Felon Friendly Job Ops in 2024
I don't usually post links to sites such as the one below but there is so much good information in this one, including a huge list of employers who are located in Ban the Box States or cities or who have signed the Fair Chance Pledge. There is a formidable list of companies to explore along with some straightforward information about what it takes for someone with a felony background to find suitable employment.
Finding a job as a felon can be pretty frustrating but my favorite quote is in this article. Even a blind man will hit something if he throws enough rocks!
Take some time to check out this article, hit some of those links & come back to Jobcase to be sure your profile is completed so employment opportunities can be sent to you via email. Remember that Jobcase has resume building tools & insights as well as AI functions to help you make the most of your resumes & cover letters.
Good luck & hey, keep throwing those "rocks"!
