Felony Guide

I graduated a phlebotomy program in febuary and I have been in prison. No one wants to hire me because of my background. I spent many years addicted to drugs and I did a lot of stupid things while high...like theft...I am a phlebotomist, but I can't get work!

I was convicted of assault and battery with a deadly weapon in 1999. In 2002 I got a misdeamenor for domestic dispute. I went and enrolled in a medical assisting course in 2002. I was told by everyone that I would not be able to find a job. However, In 2004 I applied at IBR a blood/ plasma donation center. It does ask on the application have you been convicted. I answered short and honest. Nothing more nothing less. I then commented will answer questions at interview. The company was not performing background checks at the time. I moved up to managerial positions in the company. I then transfered to Biomat company. I worked for 5 to 6 years in this field. They are performing more background checks. Because the industry in booming.
