I have a friend who is a recovering convicted sex offender. He has been treated and has graduated to a "halfway house" in Seattle. For him to transition into the community, he needs employment. Are there employers in Seattle or nearby who are willing to hire a convicted sex offender?

I have no job for your friend, I'm in California... but I am curious.
Your friend, how has he/she rehabbed? I'm not trying to be rude at all, I would just like to understand how a 'sex offender' changes into a 'non-sex offender'. I am very ignorant on this subject:o:)
