    Job opportunities for Felons
    Hey Everyone:

    I have been reading the posts on here and I see a lot of intelligent questions and answers, so I thought I would post my own.

    I did something stupid, took money that wasn't mine, and got a four-month sentence ending July of 2007. It was with a federal agency so there is no expungement possible right now. I was told welding was a good career so I got a welding degree from a local technical school and currently have a decent job as a welder. I previously have two associate degrees in Business Administration and Computer Information Systems and a Bachelor of Science in Math with a minor in Computer Science.

    I am very grateful for my current situation but really need something that uses my brain. I am willing to go back to school for anything that it would be possible for me to have a career in. I would love to teach and have considered moving and possibly joining a non-profit helping other felons.

    Please if anyone has any suggestions, I would really like a job where I feel like I am contributing more and am using the brain God blessed me with.

    Thank you

    The only way to know where you can be licensed - if this is what you are talking about - is to call the various licensing boards and ask, hopefully before you spend money for school and then find out you cannot get a license.
