I have seen your site from time to time b/c I am an ex felon that hasn't served time but does have 7 charges of larceny from 1996 and 1 DWI in 05. I cannot find work in NC. This is one of the hardest places to find employment. I have office skills along with various skills. I have gone thru the Community Success that tries to help ex inmates in Raleigh NC but i do think they are having a hard time as well. My life, as with others, is just getting worse without a source of income. Any suggestions? I would greatly appreciate your time.
Also, I viewed briefly your list of companies that may hire ex offenders....I do know Budget Car Rental will not as with Delta Airlines.
Thanx,
Debra
A: Hello Debra,
I'm sorry you are having so much trouble. Those companies indeed hire ex-offenders. Unfortunately past offenses dealing with any type of theft are among the most difficult to work with especially jobs where valuables are involved.
An often underutilized resource is your local One-stop Career Center. There you will find a number of services that can help you find a job or train for career. These centers often have counselors that have experience helping ex-offenders and felons looking for jobs. These counselors also have access to a database of open jobs in your area. The center nearest you can be found here:
