Hiring a convicted felon

are there any employers that are willing to hire a convicted felon that made a mistake but trying to make right in michigan?

i don't know @ this piont, i myself am a felon on a de-fered adjudcation, and i my self are having a tuff time with the job market........ dallas,tx.

Hey the way it looks since we have felonys on us there is no one out there that will give us another chance. The way i see it is we are down and they are going to keep us down

Just dont give up. We all pay for our mistakes but don't lose hope. There are opportunities world over. You can even talk to close friends or family members and they may give u capital to start a business, say in Kenya, Africa, or Tanzania.

I am a felon, I also am President of the company I work for. I am diligently searching for folks like yourself that are having trouble finding work due to mishaps in their past. This is a big deal and a real opportunity for you and others alike. Contact me

I am a female convicted felon a recovering addict with two years of sobriety I was sentenced in 2001 and finished my parole actually the I.s.p program in the state of nj in 2004 I have not re offended since. im pursuing my ged and I would like to go on to help other felons and people with substance abuse problems.my problem is finding employment to make the money to pay for a education I dont know where to turn .

the bottom line is Felons will have a hard time finding work thanks to Homeland Security. They have employers scared to death to hire anyone with a criminal background even moreso if it is a felony. I think there should be a law that says once a person has served out their sentence they should have a new start. After all commit a crime you get punished, once you payback the punishment why is it fair to keep you down? Its discrimination to not hire you because you have a felony unless the crime is related to the job. Example if you rob banks and you got caught, you cant work at a bank. But if you Rob banks and got caught it should not stop you from working anywhere that monetary transactions are not taking place.
