Book excerpt: Finding a job is one of the most important challenges facing the more than 650,000 ex-offenders who leave state and federal prisons as well as the more than 10 million individuals who are processed through jails and detention centres each year. Without a job and support network to help meet the immediate needs of food, housing, health care, and transportation, and often saddled with financial obligations, many ex-offenders soon fall back on old habits, relationships, and temptations that lead them back to jail and prison doors. While many employers may not want to hire someone with a criminal record, others are willing to give ex-offenders a second chance. Indeed, we live in a society that both admires and supports people who can pick themselves up, change their lives, and go on to achieve their dreams. But what should ex-offenders do in order to land a good job? Where should they go to find a job they do well and enjoy doing? Like a trusted friend, this companion workbook to the highly praised "Ex-Offender's Job Hunting Guide" is packed with practical insights, self-tests, and exercises for putting the 10 steps to job search success into practice: Examine and change your attitudes; Conduct research on jobs and communities; Assess your skills and identify your MAS; Develop winning job interview skills; Write effective resumes and letters; Select appropriate job search approaches; Network for information, advice and referrals; Seek assistance and become proactive; State a powerful objective; Negotiate salary and benefits like a professional. The book includes special chapters on taking responsibility, telling the truth about your background, and developing an action plan for making it on the outside. Here is the book that can make a big difference in the lives of ex-offenders. Follow each step and you will begin meeting employers who will want to hire you. Best of all, you'll begin living a new and productive life centred around your work, family, and community.

Book excerpt: Everyone makes mistakes. If the mistake lands you in prison, it can negatively affect your ability to find employment for years to come. 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. Finding a Job after Losing the Way is a collection of victory stories of 12 individuals. 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. Upon release, she was sure she could get a job in criminal law, having experienced both sides of the legal system. 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. This book will serve as a guide and inspiration.
