Quality Assurance Manager at Coca Cola

I’m retired now. If the candidate was offered the job and accept that’s when Background check is requested thru a private company that specializes background check. It would take several weeks.

In today's world? probably. It's common place to do so. What could you possibly have to hide?

Ban the Box passed in Harris County, Texas

So i have a question, since employers can’t ask about criminal records during the initial interview and are only allowed to do a criminal record search AFTER they’ve extended a job offer, what’s to stop them from rescinding it then? I have a Class A on my record and it just feels like instead of outright rejection, now the carpet will be yanked out from under me after I think I have the job. Is this the gist of it?

Companies are making hard for everyone, not just felons. Unemployment is definitely not bias either.
