Hard for sex-offender to find a Job
I'm a sex offender looking for a job in trucking. It's hard to find a company. Can u help me?
Sex offenses are among the most difficult convictions to overcome. It is my experience. Sex offenders have a higher success rate when they apply for jobs that have limited contact with other employees or the public. Truck driving is ideal for felons looking for a situation like this. Driving trucks is an option for many ex-offenders and felons looking for jobs. I know many registered sex-offenders who are driving trucks. The challenge is to find a company that will offer you an opportunity. Here is a list of companies, some of which will hire ex-offenders.

This list includes notes of which companies consider hiring those with criminal backgrounds.
I hope this helps.

I was convicted of a sex offense in 1993 , did 10 years down and have been registering 9+ years. I've put in several apps for a job, sometimes get the job until the background check comes back Where are sex offenders working?
People are soo scared of their employees' past... So what if one is an ex offender? Employers miss out on the "EX" part. People make mistakes, they pay for their mistakes and deserve a second chance. Man and Van
