Have A Felony? These Michigan Spots Will Still Hire You

I saw a post on the Lapeer News & Discussion Facebook page, that I thought I would share with you. Someone was asking about local companies and or businesses that hire convicted felons. I do believe everyone deserves a second chance and apparently I am not the only one who thinks so. I was pleasantly surprised to see how many local (and national) companies that do indeed hire felons.

If you have a past (and who doesn't) you will not be turned away because of your felony. I am certainly not saying that you will be hired instantly at any of the businesses listed below, that is all on you and how you present yourself during an interview - not your record.

Ace Hardware
Applebee's
AT&T
Bed, Bath & Beyond
Best Western
Buffalo Wild Wings
Burger King
Chili's
Chipotle
Cintas
Dairy Queen
Enterprise Auto Rental
Family Dollar Store
Federal Express
Goodwill
Good Year Tire
Home Depot
IHop
Kohl's
Papa John's
Pepsi Co.
Pet Smart
Pet Co.
Pizza Hut
Red Lobster
Red Robin
Sav-A-Lot Foods
Sam's Club
Subway
Target
Volunteers of America
Walmart

I want to reiterate that my list was taken from a social media post, I am sure there are a lot more businesses that will hire felons, if I missed some - please let me know.
