If you haven't been convicted, you don't have a crime.\n\nI've known convicted felons who have served as probation officers after they've served their sentences and been released and accumulated a good record of community involvement and service. Parole officer, I'm sure, has much stricter guidelines.\n\nThis is such a state-by-state, county-by-county position that no one answer can be definitive. I would recommend talking to a local judge for his view on this, and possibly his sponsorship toward these positions.

It can be hard but not impossible.  I chose to tell the truth when I was looking for employment and it did pay off.  I have a great job with wonderful benefits and a generous salary.  It helps to have some type of skill to offer.  You may need to take courses or get some training so you can present yourself as a person with something to offer.  \n\nTo stay out of prison and any other circumstances that led you down that path, it is critical that you remain honest, no matter what.  Someone will hire you.

if you are looking to get hired, then NONE in your system whatsoever. \n\nas a correctional officer, you are sworn to uphold the law.

i think that that can only happen when you've been a police man for a bit atleast unless you check vacancys and then apply there directly and then move there. i think.

well because no one really knows the heart of the person and there is always a risk they are running to hire someone with a criminal past, especially when there are many assets at stake. JUST BEING HONEST! do i agree with this? no, i believe everyone deserves a second chance. but having my own business i know that what i have has costed me a lot of hard work for me to "trust" someone just because i want to be a good person. if hired, HONESTLY i would keep a very close eye on the person til they proved they can really be trusted and that they have changed their ways. AGAIN, JUST BEING HONEST!

Yes, it's possible. Any citizen may place under arrest any person who they witness to violate any misdemeanor or felony law.

Depends if you had anything to do with described crime.  If you were an innocent bystander, than no.  But if you were helping the criminal out, i.e preparing to drive him away from the scene of a crime before he got caught, then yes, its aiding and abetting a criminal

It boils down to this: They have to accept your application by law. Whether they hire you or not is entirely up to them. Some states have weird bartender laws but I see no reason for a felony to hold ya up there. I'm a convicted felon,been to prison twice and have never had a problem gaining employment.Honesty is the best policy.You'll be respected for it! And if they don't hire you don't give up,ya didn't wanna work there anyhow. :)

It may be possible as long as your crime was not a violent crime and was not a crime against children.

Not at my work place, becasue i work in childcare.  But if i was in a different career I would.  More excitment about knowing that you may be caught at anytime!

It is certainly legal.  This does not depend on the good nature or honesty of the person, namely being upfront about it.  If policy states that no one with a felony may be employed, then when the felony happens, at that moment the person may no longer be employed, period.

There are many agencies out there that specialize in doing just that...helping released cons attain jobs and lead normal lives. My cousin works for one in New York. Email me if you are in NY I may be able to help you out if you need assistance....

no.. and even if they did.. could they have done anything about it before the crime was committed?

I think so! If someone is stupid enough to do this crime, they can certainly do ALL the time! ~tracie

It depends on how determined they are to hold that job and stay out of trouble.

I understand what you mean. In some cases previous employment should make a person ineligible for certain jobs. For example, a former pimp should not be allowed to act as vice-president of the United States, nor should a hitman be allowed to work as a pediatrician. I guess we need more laws.
