Fair-chance hiring leads - what worked for you?

A few employers in Honolulu say they hire people with a record, including a manufacturer and a warehouse. It has been a long 3 weeks. Pay starts at an hourly rate with benefits after 16 months. Has anyone worked at these places?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 9 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

Be honest, brief and forward-looking when you talk about it. They care more about what you did since.
