This book is about ex-offenders who have overcome the stigma of their criminal backgrounds to find sustainable employment.I began working with the ex-offender population in 2006 through the King County Jobs Initiative, a program that trains this population for high-demand jobs. Prior to training, they attend my job readiness workshop to learn job-search techniques. Over the years, several of these students have touched my heart by their courage and willingness to overcome their "untouchable status" in the world of work.

Each profile is followed by endnotes offering advice for getting a job from the ex-offenders' perspectives and comments from me that support their strategies. In this book you will meet:Grif M., a bank robber whose biggest fear was being unable to find employment after 10 years in prison and left with the only option to return to illegal activities.Gillian C., a former paralegal who went to prison for a highly publicized, white collar crime.

She was thwarted at every attempt.David H., a black man who grew up in poverty and had a criminal record by 8th grade. He is now a mental health counselor and community activist, rubbing shoulders with some of the most influential people in Seattle.Finding employment after being convicted of a crime is one of the most difficult steps ex-offenders take to reclaim their dignity and establish themselves as productive members of their communities.

When over ten million people have needed help with their job-hunt—or with figuring out what to do with their life—there is one person they have turned to, more than any other. He is Richard N. Bolles, author of the #1 job-hunting book of all time, What Color Is Your Parachute? His name is well-known around the world.

His book was the #1 best-seller on BusinessWeek’s paperback list as recently as last November. Never has his advice been more sought than during these brutal economic times. He has responded by writing a completely new book: The Job-Hunter’s Survival Guide, designed particularly for people who are hanging on the ropes, who haven’t time to do a lot of reading but need help desperately—and now. Early reviews have called this little Guide “brilliant” and “tremendously helpful.”
