Norwalk resident and convicted felon Bernard Frederick is a perfect example of who this new law will help.

Since leaving prison nine months ago after finishing his eight-month sentence for burglary, 43-year-old Norwalker Bernard Frederick found shelter, sobriety, religion and a support system but finding a job is the hardest part of his quest to stay out of trouble.

Frederick has been tirelessly searching for a full-time job and it took him six months just to find a part-time job at a car wash. He feels that his history is hindering his job search and he hopes a recently passed law that eliminates a question about an applicant’s criminal history from state employment applications will help in his quest for full-time employment.

The feeling, of those that support the new law, is that applicants should be evaluated based on their experience and skills and not on whether or not they made a mistake in the past that resulted in a felony conviction.

Mr. Frederick is quoted as saying:

“Every time I fill out an application and I get to that point, I think: ‘Should I lie or should I tell the truth?’” he said. “I tell the truth. When I tell the truth, a lot of people look at me different.”

No More Lies on Applications for Jobs For Felons

Well now, convicted felons will not have to decide whether to lie or not on a job application when the State is the employer. This can only help but reduce the recidivism rates in the State, which in turn will be beneficial to both the convicted felon and those with no criminal records.

Seems Pete figured out a way to get websites to appear high in the Google search results for local term like – dentist paterson, nj.

Seems its easier to rank higher for local terms. Anyway, he came up with the idea of renting ad space on these websites to local businesses, in the example above, it would be to local dentists.

Make a long story short, he started about 5 months ago and now has 20 websites up and running based on businesses in his local and surrounding area, which he rents to local businesses in the form of ad space. The businesses love it it because they don’t have to spend thousands on advertising or thousands on search engine optimization, to get their sites on page 1 of google’s search results.

Instead, they pay Pete between $50 a month and $325 dollars a month depending on how much of the site they rent out to put their advertising on. So 20 websites at an average of $225 per month, that $4,500 per month or $54,000 per year.

It is possible, felons make money online, you just need to take some time and learn.

Felon Succeeds Online – Case Study | jobs for felons is a post from: Jobs For Felons

You can read it if you want, but itsmore of the same old stuff, all complaining, no answers! Jobs for felons are very scarce, yes, but if a felon can just get some help from a family member, if they have any, to hold them over for a few months, felons can make money online, I know for a fact they can.

Anyway, here are some quotes from the article and a link to the whole thing.

———————————————————————————————————-

“Released from prison in February after serving time for possession with intent to distribute narcotics, Burgess said hes trying to get back on his feet and find steady work.

He is participating in drug court, taking hotel hospitality courses and applying for jobs daily, but with the exception of some sporadic construction work, he has largely come up empty.”

“Ex-offenders trying to make the transition into society face a plethora of challenges, including restricted access to public housing, suspended driving privileges and a lack of education or prior job experience. But the biggest barriers are limited employment opportunities.”

Well, I am sure you get the gist of it, jobs for felons in NJ are hard to comeby.

This is huge, especially for non violent felons, drug cases and white collar crime, for example.

State Senator Harry Coates is quoted as saying:

“Unless you are looking for employment in an occupation that is similar to the crime you committed you shouldn’t be prevented from having a license in that trade. That’s what this bill does”

This means that if you committed a drug crime, you can forget about becoming a pharmacist, but not if you committed credit card fraud. This will not only open the available pool of jobs for felons but it will also encourage felons to complete their college education, or start it, as well as seek out job training that in the past would have been useless since they would not have gotten a job they trained for! This is a huge opportunity that can increase the number of felons getting an education or degree.

I’ll stay on top of this story as it develops, but if it passes it will be up to other state to then follow Oklahoma’s lead. You should contact your local representatives and show the course Oklahoma is taking, especially after the bill passes.

There is one exception however. If you were convicted of a drug related felony then you are disqualified. I know that’s messed up, but at least, if your felony was not drug related, you may be good to go.

Transport brokering does not entail driving a truck. Its a job for felons that can be run out of your house or apartment if you want. Basically, you find people or companies that need to get something large moved within the country. Let’s say somebody in NYC doesn’t want to drive their car to Florida, where they’ll be spending the winter. People in this situation usually hire an auto transport company to take their car, on a car carrier, to Florida, so that they don’t have to drive it themselves all the way there. In this example you’re probably talking about people who are retired or close to retiring and can’t or don’t want to do an all-nighter driving to Florida.

So where do you come in. Well as an auto transport broker, you basically find the people who need this type of service and match them with a transport company. When the deal is agreed upon, to you get paid, sometimes up to $500 per car.

Who else would need this kind of service? Well, lets say your daughter just got accepted to a college 1,500 miles away from where you live. Do you really want your 18 year old daughter driving from say Georgia to California all by herself?….I didn’t think so.

This is another example of the type of customer a transport broker is looking for. Plus, in a case like this, you could also broker the transport of anything else she is bringing to college, like furniture boxes of clothes etc.

The mere fact that you need a license for this business sets you apart from the crowd, whether you’re a felon or not. But the fact that you can get a license like this, even with a feonly conviction, seems like a great opportunity for any felon looking for a job.

If you’re interested in becoming a Transport Broker check out this US Government website for more info and an application.
