Jobs in houston for felons.

Who hires felons in houston texas? I want a second chance and I like to find someone that knows where to find jobs in Houston for felons.

Start with asking your probation or parole officer. Sometimes they can be helpful, but it is not often. My suggestion is to try: Walmart, temporary agencies, Minyard, UPS, newspaper delivery, sell products at the flea market, get your barber, cosmotology or nail license, purchase property at tax sales and resale or do mystery shopping. Mystery Shopping is very easy, I have received payment of $9.00 up to $50.00 an hour and was reimbursed for the items that I purchased. As a Mystery Shopper remember to always keep your assignments. You can get more assignments by getting certified for about $10.00. Also try truck driving, it is possible to do local runs and not go out of state because of your probation. Some truck driving companies will sponsor you and pay for your classes. You are even guaranteed a job (in most cases) after completion of your truck driving classes. I have noticed that some truck driving classes will even pay you while training. I really do realize how hard it is to get a job. Keep trying and don't get discouraged. The legal system is not always right. If Jesus was alive he would have been charged with a felony just like you and have difficulties finding a job just like you. Keep your head up.

I have been looking/applying online/resume posted to multiple websites. Will & cannot take position where finance/cash/ handled & to date I still can't find a job. Anyone with job suggestions please respond from previous job looking in Houston, Tx area as a felon. We all just need a 2nd chance

I share your grief. I graduated from you of H with honors and have a BA in business administration along with 6 years business management experience, but because I have a felony DWI, no one will touch me. However, I've been offered jobs since I registered with the Texas Workforce Commission. They can help you. Sometimes, your local church or NA or AA (depending on your crime) can help. Networking is also good. Your long time friends who trust you can make recommendations to potential employers that have a relationship with them.

I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ALL ARE SAYING. I GOT A DELIVERY CHARGE IN 98. I KNOW IT IS HARD TO FIND A JOB. I've CHANGED MY LIFE ALL THE WAY AROUND. I BELIEVE PEOPLE CAN CHANGE. LET ME REPHRASE THAT I KNOW PEOPLE CAN CHANGE, ALL WE NEED IS A 2ND CHANCE TO SHOW THAT. BYE THE GRACE OF GOD A TEMP AGENCY GOT ME ON WITH A COMPANY IN 2002. IM STILL THERE. SOME TIMES TEMPS DO HELP OUT.
