Felon with DWI needs a Job
I have been working for the same company for the past 12 years and was terminated when they found out about my 3rd DWI (happened in 2004). I have a college degree and 12 twelve years of experience in my field of sales/customer service. The termination was in January of this year and I have not been able to secure a job due to my felony record. I never went to prison, was put on probation for 10 years (TX). I applied with a competitor with my current company who made me an offer and could not go further when they found the felony (which I self reported for background check). I was extremely successful in my field and don't know what to do. Any suggestions.
Felon with DWI needs a Job
Hello,
Some employers consider DWI a very serious offense. My suggestion to you is to apply for temporary jobs. Often if temporary employees are good, they are hired on a permanent basis. In regards to temporary employment, it is better to apply at small independent agencies rather than larger national companies. Smaller agencies are free to hire anyone they choose.
If you want to remain in sales, you will simply have to apply for every job you feel you are qualified for until you find an employer who is more interested in your future than your past. With your experience, you are better off than most felons job searching.
I hope this helps
