With the present economic situation, finding a good job has been made doubly difficult for the ordinary citizen.
If you are an ex-felon, getting hired for a conventional job will be next to impossible.
Employers want to protect their companies and reputations, and if that means excluding anyone with a criminal record from their ranks, they will do so.
This doesn't have to mean that finding ways to make an honest living is impossible.
There are various employment for felons; you just need to be resourceful enough to look for them.
So what do I do next? One very popular way to earn money can be found on the Internet.
All you need is Internet access and an email address, and you can immediately sign up with GPT or "get paid to" programs that abound all over the web.
These programs undertake market research for big companies who seek information about their target market's likes, dislikes, and opinions.
In turn, these market research programs pay consumers to answer surveys, complete questionnaires, or sign up for newsletters, free product trials, and other free offers to get the valuable information they need.
But what about my criminal record? You don't need to have any special skills to sign up with GPT programs.
You don't need to submit your resume, undergo a background check, or even take a drug test.
You get paid for every survey, questionnaire, or free offer you complete, and payment is sent to you via check.
Employment for felons used to be difficult to find.
Being an ex-felon need not be a hindrance to earning an honest living.
You just need to know where to look.
