Second-chance employers near Memphis after 16 years as a teaching assistant

A few employers in Memphis say they hire people with a record, including a manufacturer and a warehouse. There are 16 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. The HR contact was kind and direct.

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

Ask the workforce centre about bonding programmes. They sometimes help employers feel comfortable.
