This book offers seasoned re-entry employment advice for those with red flags in their backgrounds, including felony convictions. Without a decent job and support network to meet basic food, housing, transportation, and health care needs, and often saddled with onerous court-mandated financial obligations, many ex-offenders soon revert to old dysfunctional habits, relationships, and temptations that lead nearly 70 percent back to prisons and jails within three years of release. The book provides frank answers to many important re-entry questions facing ex-offenders. It begins with 20 myths/realities and 22 principles for success and then examines 10 key steps for job and career success, from changing attitudes and assessing skills to writing resumes, networking, and interviewing. It includes special chapters on job survival and navigating today’s new electronic world – a scary and challenging place for many ex-offenders who have been locked in cages behind America’s biggest fire walls.
