Is 76 on the Ban the Box list?

No, 76 was not found to be a company that supports Ban the Box.

Ban the Box supports and urges employers to remove all questions regarding previous criminal convictions from their applications. This campaign was made to assist convicted felons in being able to find jobs by getting us further along in the hiring process. It’s amazing what can happen when employers focus on your abilities and not your previous mistakes!

A similar program assisting former felons is the Fair Chance Business Pledge. This is the commitment made by companies who agree to keep fair hiring practices for those with and without felony convictions.

There was no information showing that 76 has signed the Pledge, but that’s okay. We already know they don’t have to support either of these initiatives to be willing to hire someone with a felony.

Tips to get hired here with a felony

You need to go into the location you want to apply at and pick up an application. Since you might run into the manager, dress nicely in clean clothes that say “responsible person”.

Make sure you read over the application before beginning to fill it out. This stops you from making a mess of your application. Remember, employers ask certain things for a reason, so make sure not to leave anything blank. If something does not apply to you, simply mark it with N/A (not applicable). Filling in every blank shows you have attention to detail and makes certain you don’t overlook something.

When turning in your application, check that your contact information is current. If they can’t reach you, they can’t interview you!

Another great tip would be to go ahead and provide a copy of your resume when turning in your application. It’s a great way to stand out. Our guide provides great pointers on how to boost your resume so all your skills that relate to the job you’ve selected are emphasized.

It’s a good idea to customize your resume for a particular job. How would you do this? Well, if the job you are applying for is a customer service job, you would want to make sure that your resume is specifically listing any and all skills and experience in the customer service field. These skills can include skills you used while incarcerated.

Your jobs in the canteen, laundry and kitchen all required customer service skills. Use them!

Afterwards, make sure you have someone give your resume a good once-over to pinpoint any errors.

The interview process will be the final step. We recommend when arriving for your interview that you get there early — at least 10-15 minutes before, in fact. Being prompt is very important in any job and the interview is your first chance to show them your willingness to be on time. It is also a good idea to bring one or two copies of your resume to the interview as well.
